The following excellent solution (see below) to a 2-page spread of an
image was given me by Hans (I had been completely unaware of the command
\startspread. It appears to be recent and undocumented, but it certainly
simplifies matters).
But in my case the title is a lengthy sentence, rather than the 4-word
'This is a cow'. And even though I have been able to split the line,
e.g. title={this is my very, very, very,\\ very etc. etc. long title},
what happens is that part of the caption still appears on the right-hand
page of the spread.
Is there a way that I can limit the appearance of the caption to just
one (the left-hand) page? In other words, so the figure is spread but
not the caption? Or alternatively, have the caption neatly split across
the two pages with appropriate space inbetween? I tried various
combinations, including an \hfill halfway through the title, but to no
avail. Perhaps this is asking too much, but there may be a workaround.
