Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ table + picture = misalignment?

[Sagil]

I've been trying to stick a table and a picture next to each other:

Unfortunately, I get a somewhat mal-aligned result:

latexskylineproblem.gif (24.38 KiB) Viewed 2938 times

Having just the table or just the picture works fine. Any ideas what's causing this?

Why do you place these two objects into a display math environment?


Best regards

That was just a quick way for centering. The same thing (slightly worse even) happens with a center environment though. I've also tried sticking them into array cells, same result.

Try an optional alignment parameter for the tabular environment.

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

\begin{tabular}[b]{|c|c|c|}
% table contents
\end{tabular}

Now you can go back to using the center environment.

Great, that works! Regardless of center or display math!
