How do I put pictures side by side in Beamer?

Using the columns environment in beamer one can easily align two images side by side in frame, so that both images take up the whole side they are assigned.

The following minimal working example shows how to do this:

% How to align two images side by side in beamer \documentclass % Theme choice \usetheme \begin \begin % start the columns environment and set the % positioning of the content inside the columns at % the top with the T specifier \begin[c] % create the column with the first image, that occupies % half of the slide \begin \begin \centering \includegraphics[width=0.8\textwidth] \caption \end \end % create the column with the second image, that also % occupies half of the slide \begin \begin \centering \includegraphics[width=0.9\textwidth] \caption \end \end \end \end \end

Compiling this code yields:

$beamer figure and text side by <a href=$ side vertical center alignment " width="1024" height="768" />

Comments:

The above code has a column environment and inside it two columns with the same width (0.5\textwidth).
Inside the first column, we included the figure “Block-Diagram.png” with a width equals to 80% of the column text width.
Inside the first column, we included the figure “Step-Response.png” with a width equals to 80% of the column text width.
Content of both columns is vertically centered aligned by adding the option [c] to columns environment.

By changing the option [c] to [b], we get content bottom vertically aligned. Here is the output:

$bottom alignment frame beamer$

To get top alignment, we add the option [T] to columns environment and here is what we get:

$Top alignment frame in beamer latex$
