General ⇒ subfigure | Control the horizontal Space between Sub-figures

[pallav]

I am using the following.

Code: Select all

\usepackage{graphicx,subfigure,float}
\addtolength{\subfigcapskip}{-25pt}
\addtolength{\subfigbottomskip}{-25pt}
\addtolength{\subfigtopskip}{-25pt}

I can control the vertical spacing between sub-figures (suppose, two figures in three rows). I am unable to control the horizontal spacing between two adjacent figure of each rows. Please suggest me to get rid of the problem.

subfig provides some vertical skips, such as before and after a subcaption. I guess you need to put horizontal space between subfigures yourself by \hspace, \quad or similar, if you arrange subfigures horizontally.

Perhaps post a minimal working example with your subfig layout if you would have further questions. Some people, including me, rarely deal with tiny code snippets if a solution isn't already theoretically obvious. I usually test a solution before I suggest it, on runnable code.

Here I am attaching a code. When we use

Code: Select all

\usepackage[demo]{graphicx} 

the figures in each row coming very close to each other and also the distance of two figs of a column is acceptable. There is indeed no need of

Code: Select all

\setlength{\abovecaptionskip}{-1pt}
\setlength{\belowcaptionskip}{-1pt}
\addtolength{\subfigcapskip}{-1pt}

But when the actual figs comes, it is necessary to squeeze the figures in order to avoid the unnecessary space between the figs. The above code helps me to handle the verticle distance of the figs.

But, when the gaps of figs of a row is larger than expectation, I am unable to handle to squeeze them together .

I am requesting to solve the issue (when using \usepackage{graphicx} instead of \usepackage[demo]{graphicx}, obviously).

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsthm,subfigure,float}
%\usepackage{graphicx} 
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx} 
\setlength{\abovecaptionskip}{-1pt}
\setlength{\belowcaptionskip}{-1pt}
\addtolength{\subfigcapskip}{-1pt}
 \begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\subfigure[\tiny{$\lambda_1=0, \lambda_2=0$}]{
    \includegraphics[height=1.5in,width=2in]{A.eps}
    \label{fig:A_D_subfigure501}
		}
\subfigure[\tiny{$\lambda_1=0.1, \lambda_2=0.05$}]{
    \includegraphics[height=1.5in,width=2in]{B.eps}
    \label{fig:A_D_subfigure502}
}
\subfigure[\tiny{$\lambda_1=0.11, \lambda_2=0.05$}]{
    \includegraphics[height=1.5in,width=2in]{C.eps}
    \label{fig:A_D_subfigure503}
		}
\subfigure[\tiny{$\lambda_1=0.18, \lambda_2=0.05$}]{
    \includegraphics[height=1.5in,width=2in]{D.eps}
    \label{fig:A_D_subfigure504}
		}
\caption{\scriptsize (Colour online) The Fig.
} 
 \label{fig:one}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

The subfigure package is obsolete for a long time and should be replace by subfig (or another corresponding package).

How to use? Any hints please.

No problem: subfig manual, with examples and reference.

Since you're using the »caption« package already it's probably best to use the subcaption package (documentation: subcaption). It is from the same author and plays together with »caption« nicely.

I support this, for example I remember subcaption worked better with hyperref than subfig (there was at least a bug),
