(The question does not concern figures, captions, ...)
It's easy to put two graphics gra1
and gra2
side by side so that they touch each other along their right and left vertical sides of the bounding box, being
\includegraphics{gra1}\includegraphics{gra2}
enough to accomplish the goal (the two graphics will be arranged as G1G2
with no space in between them).
What if one wants to put them one above the other so that they touch each other along the horizontal sides? They should be arranged like this
G1
G2
with no space in between them. Is there any way I can do this which is as clear, simple (no package required) as the previous is?
I know that a new line is not the solution for two reasons:
- when the two graphics are small enough, a space will appear in between the two graphics, since they belong to different lines;
- I don't want the pair of graphics to be however related to the lines, since I just want to use the pair as it was a whole.
I'm not looking for the TikZ
solution.
EDIT The reson for the point 2. is that I'm going to use this pack of two graphics as optional argument of \item
in a itemize
environment.
So I'd like to put something like
\newcommand{\horzcat}{\includegraphics{gra1}\includegraphics{gra2}}
\newcommand{\vertcat}{<the solution I'm looking for>}
in the preamble, so that I can have a list like the following,
\begin{itemize}
\item[\horzcat] ...
\item[\vertcat] ...
...
\end{itemize}
