Hi,


I am trying to create a slide with text and graphics side by side:

three itemized lines on the left, and a small figure on the right.

I've tried \twocolumn{text}{\includegraphics{}}

and also tried floats, but the graphics doesn't show properly.

Any advice?


Best,

Eran

I recently tried to do the same thing, and could not figure out an easy way to 
do it.  I settled for putting the picture at the top, and the text below it.

The most promising approach might be to use two minipages side by side.
