Document Classes ⇒ beamer figures

[workerbee]

Hi all,

I'm having some issues with inserting figures using the Beamer class. Mainly, the problem is that a pdf file won't compile and there's an error message saying that there's missing information. I placed the images (which are pdf files) in the same folder as the Latex for the beamer-class document but nothing comes up. Here's the code I used. Can someone tell me where I went wrong?

attached is a pdf of what the figure looks like.

please provide a minimum example and tell us which program (pdflatex or something else) you are using to compile the TeX document. When including PDF graphics, you have to use pdfLaTeX in PDF mode.

This is a very poor effort of describing the problem. Please give the exact error message which can be found in the log file. Reading your code I stumbled over a mysterious line.

If you could explain why you try to include a graphics file in math mode we would be a step further.

And why the primitive displaymath syntax is used instead of AMS environments. Anyway, that is not the problem, the following compiles without errors:

Hi,

I wouldn't use the figure environment inside a presentation, the images are probably not intended to float.

Thanks for all the replies. I figured out my errors (I actually removed the math mode before but for some reason copied an older version of the text) and fixed everything.
