Different kinds of enumerate in the same latex export

Different kinds of enumerate in the same latex export

[Julien Cubizolles]

I have to use two different enumerate items in the same document, one
numbered (the default enumerate) and the other one ordered
alphabetically (which I will now call "plickers"). In my LaTeX class,

I've defined the "plickers" environment
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\RequirePackage{enumitem}

\newlist{plickers}{enumerate}{2}
\setlist[plickers]{label=\alph*.}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But I don't know how to have org-mode use one or the other to export an
ordered list. With:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-beamer-environments-extra
      '(
	("Plickers" "P" "\\begin{plickers}%a%U" "\\end{plickers}")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The following obviously creates a enumerate environment nested within a
plickers one, not what's intended.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
**** essai                                                    :B_Plickers:
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_env: Plickers
:END:
1. 1st item
2. 2nd item
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Does orgmode allow to pass some properties to a list that could be used
to alter its format ?

Hi Julien,

You could do it like this:

#+latex_header: \usepackage{enumitem}
#+latex_header: \newlist{plickers}{enumerate}{2} \setlist[plickers]{label=\alph*.}
#+attr_latex: :environment plickers
1. A
2. B

Hope it helps,
Rasmus

Try maybe:

#+attr_latex: :environment plickers
1. first
2. second

Works for me with the etaremune environment (reverse ordered numbering).

It does, thanks. However my plickers environment depends on enumitem that
doesn't play nice with beamer. It turns out that

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+attr_latex: :options [a)]
1. first
2. second
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

works as well, without the need to define a new enumerate-like
environment.

Julien.
