I have a sideways figure in a box, that spans a whole page in a twocolumn article.
\documentclass[twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx,caption,subcaption}
\usepackage{rotating}
\usepackage{mwe}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\begin{document}
\blindtext[10]
\begin{sidewaysfigure*}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\makebox[\linewidth][c]{
\includegraphics[height=0.85\textheight,keepaspectratio]{example-image-a}
}
\captionsetup{width=1.33\linewidth}
\caption{balbla}
\end{sidewaysfigure*}
\blindtext[10]
\end{document}
Now the image is bigger than the normal boundaries, so the page numbering is in it. I tried turning it off using \thispagestyle{empty}, but no matter where I put* the command: I always remove the page style from either the page before or after the image page.
The question:
Is there a command that turns off the numbering for a specific page?
*I tried before after inside figure, the box below the caption everywhere!
** I have updated the question to include some random text. Putting \thispagestyle{empty} anywhere in \begin{sidewaysfigure*} will delete the page number somewhere in the document, but not at the position where images actually appears - hope the mwe is better now
tex/latex/base/latex.ltx
defines\thispagestyle
. However, I'm sure somebody will have an automatic best practices solution. I don't, but that doesn't mean nix.
