Hi -- I'm starting to use latex export more, and noticed three problems related to tables: - If the first column in a table has an inactive time stamp, then strange things happen -- in various tests, I've seen only seemingly random cells from a long table exported, or sometimes only the header row (that doesn't have the time stamp in it) and no other rows exported.
At least with the current version I cannot reproduce this - but I have been fiddling with the Export. Please try if you still have this issue, and if yes, make me a test case.
- If the text in the first column begins with a left bracket, then the first cell in each row is blank.
Same as above.
- If a table is long enough that it should continue on a following page, there's no page break -- instead, lines continue into the bottom margin. What fits on that page prints, but nothing else prints. If I break the table at the bottom of the page with an empty line, the rest of the table continues as expected on the following page.
This is a problem with LaTeX, a special environment is needed for such tables, and because Org does not know the font and paper sizes, it cannot automatically switch. However, you can do now: #+ATTR_LaTeX: longtable | a | b | c | |-----------| | 1 | 2 | 3 | ......... which will switch to the long table environment just for this table. Hope this helps. - Carsten _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
