[O] Suggestion: provide more detailed example of :options for LaTeX spec


From: Olivier Berger
Subject: [O] Suggestion: provide more detailed example of :options for LaTeX special blocks
Date: Mon, 03 Jul 2017 11:26:28 +0200

Hi.

May I suggest to improve the docs of
[[http://orgmode.org/manual/Special-blocks-in-LaTeX-export.html][Special
blocks in LaTeX export]] to make it more explicit that the special
blocks :options can contain both options or arguments of the LaTeX environment.

Here's an example:

#+ATTR_LATEX: :options [logo=\bcattention]{The warning}
#+BEGIN_bclogo
Attention, this is a warning
#+END_bclogo

This requires or course:
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage[tikz]{bclogo}


I've been struggling with trying to do this, until I read the sources of
ox-latex and noticed that it wasn't limited to the '[...]'
options... and much later re-read the manual to finally notice the
"appends as-is to that environment's opening string" ;-)

Maybe providing an example that uses both the '[...]' and the '{...}'
would save others' time.

Unfortunately, I'm not fluent enough in LaTeX to suggest a more
"generic" environment than bclogo, readily available in an article, for a
direct patch proposal to the manual sources.

Hope this helps.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
