I'm making a poster using the beamerposter
package, and for some reason am having a devil of a time getting the top of the columns to all line up together. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about.
See how the left and middle columns are shifted way down the page? What's going on? Here is a link to a ZIP containing all the files you should need to replicate this yourself (I didn't want to paste all that code here).
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I've followed some of the suggestions for similar questions and they tend to break things further. Thanks in advance.

Since
beamerposter
style is based onbeamer
, the columns' options are also inherited frombeamer
. Hence, simply copy/pasting for convenience from the manual, below are these alignment options for∙
b
will cause the bottom lines of the columns to be vertically aligned.∙
c
will cause the columns to be centered vertically relative to each other. Default, unless the global option t is used.∙
onlytextwidth
is the same astotalwidth=\textwidth
.∙
t
will cause the first lines of the columns to be aligned. Default if global optiont
is used.∙
T
is similar to thet
option, butT
aligns the tops of the first lines whilet
aligns the so-called baselines of the first lines. If strange things seem to happen in conjunction with thet
option (for example if a graphic suddenly “drops down” with thet
option instead of “going up,”), try using this option instead.∙
totalwidth=⟨width⟩
will cause the columns to occupy not the whole page width, but only ⟨width⟩, all told.
