18.1.6 Affiliated Keywords

Variable: org-element-affiliated-keywords ¶

List of affiliated keywords as strings. By default, all keywords setting attributes (e.g., "ATTR_LATEX") are affiliated keywords and need not to be in this list.

Its value is:

"CAPTION" "DATA" "HEADER" "HEADERS" "LABEL" "NAME" "PLOT" "RESNAME" "RESULT"
"RESULTS" "SOURCE" "SRCNAME" "TBLNAME"

Many element types can be assigned attributes. This is done by adding specific keywords, named affiliated keywords, just above the element considered, with no blank lines allowed.

Affiliated keywords are built upon one of the following patterns:

#+KEY: VALUE
#+KEY[OPTIONAL]: VALUE
#+ATTR_BACKEND: VALUE

KEY

• “CAPTION”,
• “HEADER”,
• “NAME”,
• “PLOT” or
• “RESULTS”

BACKEND

is a string constituted of alpha-numeric characters, hyphens or underscores.

OPTIONAL

can contain any character but a new line. Only “CAPTION” and “RESULTS” keywords can have an optional value.

VALUE

can contain any character but a new line.

An affiliated keyword can appear more than once if KEY is either “CAPTION” or “HEADER” or if its pattern is “#+ATTR_BACKEND: VALUE”.

“CAPTION”, “AUTHOR”, “DATE” and “TITLE” keywords can contain objects in their value and their optional value, if applicable.
