Text and Arrows pointing to a Picture

Post by Jike »

Dear experts,

I want to draw a similar picture as the attached one in beamer. More specific, how to add Texts and Arrows with user-controlled positions and directions.


Best Regards,
Jike

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Text and Arrows pointing to a Picture

Hi Jike,

there are tools like the overpic package. I would choose TikZ for that. Besides that it is capable of producing such pictures, it can be used to draw text, symbols and arrows over other pictures.
Once you have a reference point, you could use coordinates for drawing as overlay.
