Re: [O] Multicolumn figures with the new exporter
Christopher Witte ch...@witte.net.au writes: I can't get the multicolumn option to attr_latex to work with the new exporter (to generate a figure* environment). Any one know how to do this? Please refer to the manual, 12.7.4 LaTeX specific attributes: http://orgmode.org/org.html#LaTeX-specific-attributes In particular :float Float environment for the table. Possible values are sidewaystable, multicolumn and table. If unspecified, a table with a caption will have a table environment. Moreover, :placement attribute can specify the positioning of the float. So you'd put something like #+ATTR_LATEX: :float multicolumn above your picture. -- . . .

Re: [O] Multicolumn
That is probably what I will have to do. But since I want both html and LaTeX output, I have to two write separate output routines in R which I had hoped to be able to avoid.

I've exported org tables before to get most of the dirty work done and then just gone in to the .tex (or .html) files manually to tweak. Is that an option? I'll usually do this when I'm fairly positive that I'm done with any tweaking/editing of the .org document. Just a thought. John On Aug 29, 2012, at 4:39 AM, t...@tsdye.com (Thomas S.
