Document Classes ⇒ [beamer] alternating text/figures in the same slide

[plutus]

I'm trying to build up a slide in the form

-text (which is always visible)
-show up of a figure
-figure disappears, new text (always visible)
-figure explaining the new text, then disappearing
etc

the code is more or less the following

Code: Select all

	\begin{frame}{Title}
	blabla
	\setbeamercovered{invisible}	
			\begin{itemize}
			\uncover<2->{\item Text1}
				\only<2>{\begin{figure}[h]\includegraphics[angle=-90,scale=0.19]{fig1.eps}\end{figure}} 
				\uncover<3->{\item text 2}				
				\only<4>{\begin{figure}[h] 
			\includegraphics[angle=0,scale=0.4]{figures/fig2.eps}
						\end{figure}}
				\uncover<5->{\item text 3}
				...

the problem is the formatting of the slide:
when text/figures alternate, the top margin changes and as a result the succession of slides is not very nice. I've tried to use the \phantom command to allocate the space occupied by the figures but again the final result is not fully ok...ideas?

Have you tried the textpos package? The command textblock might help you to put the text exactly where you want it, and I think I saw applications of it for pictures on the web.
