Thanks, this works (I'm using 8.3.3). Now I am wondering whether it is
possible to have two headings in the same columns of the same order? I
thought that I would need a dummy heading between "Food" and "Fruit",
but the following does not work (everything ends up in a single
column). Even if it had worked, presumably it would have changed the
formatting, since '**** Fruit' is now '***** Fruit', or should
'ignoreheading' handle that?
This is what I tried but only got a single column:
#+TITLE: test
#+OPTIONS: H:3
#+STARTUP: beamer
* blah
** test
*** Food
**** dummy 1 :B_block:BMCOL:
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_col: 0.5
:BEAMER_env: block
:BEAMER_env: ignoreheading
:END:
***** Fruit
- apple
- banana
***** Nuts
- brasil
- cashew
**** dummy 2 :B_block:BMCOL:
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_col: 0.5
:BEAMER_env: block
:BEAMER_env: ignoreheading
:END:
***** Vegetables
- artichoke
- broccoli
***** Pulses
- chickpea
- lentil
Cheers,
Loris
