To make the multi-panel figure using the three photos/figures described above, I used the application Inkscape. The picture of the spider web is labeled Figure A, the environment is Figure B, and the map is Figure C. Import the upclose photo taken of the spider web and put it in the top left corner of the page. The exact dimensions of Figure A are x: 0.000 and y: 166.031. The width of the photo is 94.728. I then imported the environment/setting photo for Figure B. I placed the Figure B right next to Figure A. The exact coordinates of Figure B are x: 93.968 and y: 166.032. The width of the figure is 95.885. I then imported the screenshot of the map I took. I placed the map underneath the two other photos. The coordinates of the map are x: 0.00 and y: 39.031. The width of the map is 190.613 and the height is 128.058. You can see/enter coordinates underneath the Extensions and Zoom commands. To complete the multi-panel figure, I made boxes to label each figure. To make a box, I clicked the “create rectangles and squares” button located on the left side underneath the ruler icon. I adjusted the height and width of the box to 18.517 x 18.517. I clicked on the Fill and Stroke icon located to the left of the Text icon. I selected the white fill and the solid, black line for the dashees and the width for the line is 2.642 mm. I then created two copies of it by selecting copy once and selecting paste twice. I put one of the boxes at coordinates x: 76.37 and y: 278.50 and put a bold, size 36 Times New Roman “A.” in that box. I put the second box at x: 171.08 and y: 278.55 and put a “B.” in the box the same style as the “A.” described above. I repeated that with a “C.” and I put the box at x: 172.141 and y: 149.074. I saved the multi-panel figure and exported it as a png image.
