General ⇒ subfigure

[Sam]

hello,

I need to subfigure the following

%\begin{figure}[h!]
% \centering
% \includegraphics [width=0.7\textwidth]{delay_20amp_synch_fr4_submap.eps}
% \caption{Typical subspace map for the synchronous actuators motion(Heave)}
% \label{fig:delay_20amp_synch_fr4_submap.eps}
%\end{figure}
%\begin{figure}[h!]
% \centering
% \includegraphics [width=0.7\textwidth]{delay_fr4_cycle.eps}
% \caption{Time domain response of the two actuators being sinusoidally controlled.}
% \label{fig:delay_fr4_cycle.eps}
%\end{figure}

I tried the folowing but did not work

\begin{figure}[h]
\hfill
\begin{minipage}[t]{.45\textwidth}
\begin{center}
\epsfig{file=delay_20amp_synch_fr4_submap.eps, scale=0.25}
\caption{figure 1}
\label{fig-tc}
\end{center}
\end{minipage}
\hfill
\begin{minipage}[t]{.45\textwidth}
\begin{center}
\epsfig{file=delay_fr4_cycle.eps, scale=0.25}
\caption{figure 2}
\label{fig-tc}
\end{center}
\end{minipage}
\hfill
\end{figure}

Any help will be much apprecitaed 8)

You should use the subfig package, which lets you typeset those subfigures in a very comfortable way. Refer to its documentation for more information.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,DIV15]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[font=small,labelfont=bf]{caption}
\usepackage[font=footnotesize]{subfig}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
  \section{Short introduction to the \texttt{subfig} package}\label{sec:subfig}
    Figure~\ref{fig:figure} shows how to typeset a figure with two subfigures using the \texttt{subfig} package.

    \begin{figure}[!ht]
      \centering
      \subfloat[Subfigure One\label{subfig-1:figure}]{
        \includegraphics[scale=0.25]{delay_20amp_synch_fr4_submap}
      }
      \subfloat[Subfigure Two\label{subfig-2:figure}]{
        \includegraphics[scale=0.25]{delay_fr4_cycle}
      }
      \caption{A figure with two subfigures}\label{fig:figure}
    \end{figure}

    As you can see, you can easily typeset the Figure~\ref{fig:figure} with the two subfigures \subref*{subfig-1:figure} and \subref*{subfig-2:figure}.
\end{document}

Don't use the epsfig package! It is obsolete and superseded by the graphicx package. You can omit the endings in the file names. The compiler will find the right files on its own. Avoid the "_" in the file names and paths (even if it works). It is reserverd for subscripts in mathematical mode. The caption package lets you customize the captions of figures and tables.

Thnaks a lot!

I tried your code but still does not work

[localghost]

Sorry for that. My fault. I missed an "s" in the first line and had a wrong label in the second subfigure. I corrected the code. So, please try again. If it still doesn't work, please give a detailed description of the error by posting the message given by the compiler from the log file.

GReat Thanks you are very helpful

it did work but HOW can I control the space between the two figures?

also HOW can I Make them exactly lined up?

thx

[localghost]

Just put the right command directly between them.

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[!ht]
  \centering
  \subfloat[Subfigure One\label{subfig-1:figure}]{
    \includegraphics[scale=0.25]{delay_20amp_synch_fr4_submap}
  }
  \hspace{5mm}
  \subfloat[Subfigure Two\label{subfig-2:figure}]{
    \includegraphics[scale=0.25]{delay_fr4_cycle}
  }
  \caption{A figure with two subfigures}\label{fig:figure}
\end{figure}

also HOW can I Make them exactly lined up?

What do mean with that? They should be vertically aligned to the bottom.

[Sam]

Thanks but

\hspace{0mm} is for the horizontal distance between the fig right?

It did not make a change...I want the figures to be very close to each other and lined up!

Thx

[localghost]

Just set a negative horizontal space.

Code: Select all

\hspace{-1mm}

What do you mean with "lined up"? Vertical alignment to the top of both? They should be aligned to their bottoms.

Thnaks!

I meant lined up both horizontally

[Sam]

they don't line up horizontally!!

How can I sort this out plz
