Re: [docbook] how to make composite figures

Hi Stefan,

How necessary is it for you to use the <figure> element?  If not, we
accomplish what you are asking by putting inline mediaobjects into a
table.  The example (written in SGML) can be viewed here:

http://developers.cogentrts.com/cogent/cogentdocs/tu-runningdemo.html#TU-STARTINGUP

<para>The Controller should appear on your screen.  (In QNX it
will appear in Console #1.)</para>
  <informaltable frame="none">
    <tgroup cols="3">
      <tbody>
      	<row>
          <entry><inlinemediaobject>
            <imageobject>
            	<imagedata fileref="tu-gtkc.gif" align="center">
            </imageobject>
            <imageobject>
            	<imagedata fileref="tu-gtkc.pdf" align="center">
            </imageobject>
            /inlinemediaobject></entry>
          <entry><inlinemediaobject>
            <imageobject>
            	<imagedata fileref="tu-phc.gif" align="center">
            </imageobject>
            <imageobject>
            	<imagedata fileref="tu-phc.pdf" align="center">
            </imageobject>

            	<imagedata fileref="tu-ph2c.pdf" align="center">
            </imageobject>
            /inlinemediaobject></entry>
      	</row>

Hope that helps,
