Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ 2x2 figures with subfig

[miceleee]

Hi all,

I'd like to have 4 subfloats organized in two lines
(i.e.:
x x
x x )
But when I had 2x subfloats separated by \newline, the second pair of figures won't align.
Do I have to use subfigure?
I'm at the end of a long document, I'm concerned having to change all the syntax of my figures.

Thanks everyone!

my example:
\usepackage{subfig}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}%[!hbt]
\begin{center}
\subfloat[Float1]{\includegraphics[width=0.33\textwidth, height=0.23\textheight]{figures/F1}}
\subfloat[Figure2]{\includegraphics[width=0.33\textwidth,height=0.23\textheight]{figures/F2}}
\newline
\noindent
\subfloat[Figure3]{\includegraphics[width=0.33\textwidth, height=0.23\textheight]{figures/F3}} % \newline
\subfloat[Biomass in bioreactor]{\includegraphics[width=0.33\textwidth,height=0.23\textheight]{figures/F3}}
\end{center}
\caption[caption]{caption}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

1. This is not a complete minimal example. (See forum rules.) So we can't reproduce the problem, and therefore can't fix it for sure, only a mixture of suggesting, guessing, and looking into the crystal ball is possible.

2. There are two \end{center} but only one \begin{center}. Anyway, this produces extra (and usually unwanted) extra vertical space, so better use a simple \centering instead.

3. Never ever use \newline inside a centered environment because it simply don't work correctly. Use \\ instead.

Thanks for the reply.

No 3. did the trick. All good.

Thanks for reminding me the correct syntax and a minimal working example, in other words have a rest when it is late night.
Thanks!
