Hi all,

After quite a bit of mucking around and finally resorting to checking the
source code, I worked out how to wrap an image in a figure environment
without a caption.  The final solution

#+ATTR_LATEX: :float figure

was trivial, but the manual wasn't too helpful on this particular subject.

So others don't have to go through the same troubles I think the manual
could be slightly reworded. In the section "Images in Latex export"
http://orgmode.org/manual/LaTeX-specific-attributes.html#LaTeX-specific-attributes
I think the following sentence:

"You can also ask Org to export an image as a float without specifying
caption by setting the :float attribute."

should be change to:

"You can also ask Org to export an image as a float without specifying a
caption by setting the :float attribute *to figure*."

Also a summary of the the attributes and their valid values, as is done for
Latex tables would be useful.


Cheers,
Chris.

ps. I tried to find out if I could make those changes myself, but after
much clicking and searching, I could only find:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html but that doesn't say anything
about contributing to the documentation.
