Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How to put two figures horizontally in one line?

[subjugater]

I want to put two figures horizontally in one line. However, I don't want to use subfigure environment, because it will label the figures like 1.1, 1.2, ...

Anybody know the way to put two figures horizontally in one line but without sub-labels?

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately you don't clarify whether these two figures shall float together or be fixed in a place. The code below shows a possible solution with a float environment.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,english]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[font=small,labelfont=bf,tableposition=top]{caption}

\begin{document}
  \begin{figure}[!ht]
    \begin{minipage}{0.45\linewidth}
      \rule{\linewidth}{0.75\linewidth}
      \caption{Dummy}\label{fig:dummy-1}
    \end{minipage}
    \hfill
    \begin{minipage}{0.45\linewidth}
      \rule{\linewidth}{0.75\linewidth}
      \caption{Dummy}\label{fig:dummy-2}
    \end{minipage}
  \end{figure}
\end{document}
