#+ATTR_LaTeX no longer honoured

#+ATTR_LaTeX no longer honoured

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 582 bytes --]

Hello,

I've noticed that #+ATTR_LaTeX seems to be no longer honoured (I'm
using release_8.0.3-133-ga5872)

This is demonstrated for the attached org file.  It's the exact
example from http://orgmode.org/manual/Images-in-LaTeX-export.html.

I expect the exported latex file (C-c C-e l l) to contain something like

  \includegraphics[width=5cm,angle=90]{./dummy.png}

but I instead it contains

  \includegraphics[width=.9\linewidth]{./dummy.png}

Thanks,

Paul

PS. I'm using Emacs 24.2.1 and I tested with the minimal org-mode
set-up from http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html.

I won't even attempt to give an overview of how attribute syntax has
changed/is changing, or explain why and how the manual is out of date,
but while we're waiting for someone else to do that, here's the line
you're looking for:

#+ATTR_LaTeX: :width 5cm :options angle=90

Very briefly, I think attributes that may be common to multiple backends
are now given as eg :width or :height (with no equals sign before the
value), while attributes that are rarer or likely backend-specific are
stuffed into one :options attribute, with the keys/values written more
literally.

More than that I can't venture...

The manual is up-to-date (sections about HTML and ODT export may lag
a bit behind), but the URL isn't. In particular, see:

  http://orgmode.org/org.html#LaTeX-specific-attributes

AFAIK, :options is specific to latex back-end. Common attributes are set
the usual way, i.e. with ":attribute value" syntax. Though it's
impossible to recognize them all. So :options is handy to add raw
arguments.

Anyway, all attributes should be documented in the manual.

Sure enough, I should have just stopped with the working example!

It's strange that you say that link is not up-to date (altho I can see that
the version you've linked to is also linked from the main page),
because it says here: http://orgmode.org/manual/index.html#Top

> This manual is for Org version 8.0.3 (release_8.0.3).

Is it possible to maybe put some sort of message that would say that the
manual is outdated?

Thanks very much, that does what I want.

Also, regarding the manual being up-to-date or not, I took my instructions
from the page at http://orgmode.org/manual/Images-in-LaTeX-export.html which
does seem out of date as it says one should use

  #+ATTR_LaTeX: width=5cm,angle=90

Paul

I don't know what that page is and I can't find it in the manual.  It
seems like it somehow an outdated pages which is part of an older
version of the manual. 

Check out section 12.7 in the manual:
