subfloats
basically i need something like rowspan option in html table. I want that an figure 3 and figure 4 occupy three rows, I need a layout something like this:
|figure 1 | figure 2 | | |
|figure 5 | figure 6 | figure 3 | figure 4 |
|figure 7 | figure 8 | | |
how i can get this layout?
The problem can be resolved by using
\renewcommand\arraystretch{value}
in the columns with lesser rows. The value is set to the row ratio, in this case 10/9 = 1.111 (theoretically). A small increase may be required above the theoretical value of 10/9 to account for the fact that there are 11 \hlines in the one column, and only 10 in the second.
EDITED to show generalization to three columns, with 10, 9, and 4 rows. Theoretically, the \arraystrectch values should be 1, 10/9, and 10/4. In actual use here, I employ 1, 1.115, and 2.55.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{subfig}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}
\centering
\subfloat[][left]{\begin{tabular}{|c|}
\hline
...\\
\hline
...\\
\hline

\end{tabular}}
\quad
\subfloat[][right]{\renewcommand\arraystretch{1.115}%
\begin{tabular}{|c|}
\hline

\quad
\subfloat[][right]{\renewcommand\arraystretch{2.55}%
\begin{tabular}{|c|}

\caption{common}
\end{table}
\end{document}
Don't use both packages.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage{subfigure}
\begin{document}
abc
\end{document}
will throw the error
! LaTeX Error: Command \c@subfigure already defined.
Or name \end... illegal, see p.192 of the manual.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.
...
l.113 \newcounter{subfigure}
[figure]
while
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{subfigure}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\begin{document}
abc
\end{document}
throws
! Package subcaption Error: This package can't be used in cooperation
(subcaption) with the subfigure package.
See the subcaption package documentation for explanation.
The subfigure package is considered deprecated, so I'd recommend subcaption. They differ in use however:
\usepackage{subfigure}: defines a \subfigure macro, used as \subfigure[<subcaption>]{<figure>}\usepackage{subcaption}: defines an environment, used as
\begin{subfigure}{<width>}
<figure>
\caption{<caption>}
\end{subfigure}
Note that you have to specify a width for the environment, similar to minipage. Hence, a working version of your code snippet would be
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}[t]
\begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./Figures/img1}
\end{subfigure}\hfill
\begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./Figures/img2}
\end{subfigure}\hfill
\begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{./Figures/img3}
\end{subfigure}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
