Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Figures text to a timeline

[Davidgerber11]

I am working on a math thesis in which I want to display some simulation screenshots. I want a page with 4 Screenshots on the right below eachother with a timeline on the left. A picture with how it is supposed to look like is in the attachments. I have no clue how to do this in LateX though. Any help?

Hallo David,

willkommen im Forum!

Hier mal auf die Schnelle ein Vorschlag mit TikZ:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[demo]{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
  \foreach \x in {0,5,10,15} {
    \draw (-3pt, -\x cm) -- node (\x) [right=1em] {$t=\x$ sec} (3pt, -\x cm);
    \node [right = 1cm of \x] {\includegraphics{file\x}};
  }
  \draw[-stealth] (0,1) -- (0, -17);
\end{tikzpicture};
\end{document}

Ich habe trozdem noch eine Frage: Ich will ja vier verschiedene Bilder bei der Seite. Aber bei deinem MusterCode ist nur einmal \includegraphics. Wie mache ich es für 4 verschiedene?

Hi David,

I proceed in English, as it's an English language forum. You can also gladly visit TeXwelt or goLaTeX if you like, in German. I'm also there. That's the reason why I wrote in German earlier, as I was in a German forum at the same time.

But to the topic. The \includegraphics is in a foreach loop, including file0, file5, file 10, file15. Just as an example. You don't need to have a loop or you can change file names and loop variables.
