May I suggest using Dia for your pictures? It's point and click, and can export in eps. You can easily group objects, then align various groups (left right and center)
Switched to Dia 5 years ago from XFig that I never understood, never looked back.
[and agree entirely with the comments suggesting latex-beamer]

Dia Posted Jan 3, 2006 16:58 UTC (Tue) by bastiaan (guest, #5170) [Link] Well, yes, Dia is very nice for diagrams. Except for that super annoying font size bug: add some text objects, switch to a different zoomlevel and all half of the characters switch to a larger or smaller font size :-( The worst part is that it shows in the Postscript and PNG exports as well.Does anyone known a good workaround for it?
Thanks,
Bastiaan
LaTeX Rules Posted Jan 3, 2006 17:23 UTC (Tue) by asamardzic (guest, #27161) [Link] There are many tools able to create nice EPS figures for including in LaTeX presentations, but what I think is setting Xfig apart is its ability to include LaTeX formulas directly in figure. On the other side, I could imagine Xfig user interface is strange for a regular user of another vector (or raster) drawing package; for casual user, like myself, I guess it's fine.
