Multicolumn figures with the new exporter

Multicolumn figures with the new exporter

Hi all,

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?

Thanks,
Chris.

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.

What have you actually tried?  I believe something like

#+attr_latex: :float multicolumn

should work.  If it doesn't, post what you tried!  Always give as much
information as possible to make it a little easier to address your
problems.
