Make all sub-images the same height

[dmkaplan2000]

Description

I have several sub-images that I am combining into a single panel in a Quarto document that I export to PDF. I would like to force the images to have the same height (but different widths), but everything I have tried to change the relative size of each image seems to do nothing. I tried adding height arguments to each image and to the overall figure division, both giving the height as a percent and giving it as a number of pixels. I also tried rescaling the images in an image editing program so they all have the same vertical number of pixels. But neither of these had any effect. I could add a transparent square around each image to force them to appear as if they have the same dimensions, but this seems like a heavy-handed solution to the problem. Is there another way to force all images to appear as the same height in the output image?

A conceptual example of the figure I am trying to create is:

---
title: "Test images relative size"
format: pdf
---

::: {#fig-images layout-ncol=2}

![Caption 1](image1.png){#fig-no02 height="300"}

![Caption 2](image2.png){#fig-no21 height="300"}

![Caption 3](image3.png){#fig-no27 height="300"}

![Caption 4](image4.png){#fig-no30 height="300"}

Overall caption.

I don't think you can because width is set by default which takes precedence over height.
So you have to set the width th get the desired display.

Note that this is a Pandoc thing:

![Caption 1](https://github.com/mcanouil/awesome-quarto/blob/main/media/media.png?raw=true){#fig-no02 height="100"}

\caption{Caption 1}\label{fig-no02}
\end{figure}

OK, thanks for the information. I ended up using GIMP to ember each image in a box of the same dimensions... Not elegant, but it works...

FYI, the behaviour I described is described in Pandoc documentation: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#extension-link_attributes
