Images in Tables?

Images in Tables?

[Yu]

Hello!

I was wondering if there is any useful way, to organize images in
tables. This would be useful e.g. if one needs to organize some images
on a regular grid, but the images aren't equally sized, such that a
simple line break doesn't do the trick.

Creating just a table with the image links inside will work
/basically/, assuming that the images have an appropriate size, but if
resizing is needed, I can't see how to do this in a table (because
inside no e.g.  #+ATTR_LATEX line is possible).

The same problem also occurs when I want to preview images side-by-side, e.g.

  :  [[./img1.png]] [[./img2.png]]

though here actually newlines from fill-paragraph/auto-fill add to the
problem - as will be the size of some high-resolution images.

My only current solution is to use explicit LaTeX and then preview the
LaTeX, but that slows down operation considerably.

Is anything currently implemented to allow such usage?

* Some ideas/workarounds--each of which I've tried and they work--but some
very computer intensive:

** Also, more specific to your question:

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/thumbs.el

* What I like to do is make the images 16x16 pixels!

** Why 16x16!? Because favicons (WWW website icons) are 16x16....Strongly
suggest you make thumbs 16x16 and use thumbs.el and/or ImageMagick (free
software) to make your table icons/thumbs all the same size:

apt-get install imagemagick
mogrify -format gif -path thumbs -thumbnail 16x16 *.jpg

Images in tables?

[Peter Davis]

I'm finishing a PDF document that will contain a number of screen shots. 
I'd like to put them in a table to avoid just having them arranged 
vertically on the page. Is there a way to do that?

Specifically, I'm using

#+ATTR_LATEX: :height 6cm

to set the heights of the images. Can that work with a table somehow?

Thanks!

#+MACRO:  p   \includegraphics[scale=1]{$1}

| {{{p(a.png)}}} | {{{p(b.png)}}} |
| {{{p(c.png)}}} | {{{p(d.png)}}} |

I wouldn't use [scale=1] (it seems to depend on the resolution set up
properly in the bitmap file).  Why not use [height=2in] or [width=3cm]
etc.?

Hth,
