I am using IEEEconf to write my paper. The author section is like this:
\documentclass[conference]{IEEEtran}
\IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
\usepackage{cite}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsfonts}
\usepackage{algorithmic}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\def\BibTeX{{\rm B\kern-.05em{\sc i\kern-.025em b}\kern-.08em
T\kern-.1667em\lower.7ex\hbox{E}\kern-.125emX}}
\title{paper title}

\IEEEauthorblockA{\textit{dept. name of organization (of Aff.)} \\
\textit{name of organization (of Aff.)}\\

\and
\IEEEauthorblockN{2\textsuperscript{nd} Given Name Surname}
\IEEEauthorblockA{\textit{dept. name of organization (of Aff.)} \\
\textit{name of organization (of Aff.)}\\

\begin{document}
\maketitle
hello!
\end{document}
The template says that all the affiliations must be separate. So, for four authors I get this:
Which doesn't seem right since the fourths author should be in the center (I guess) and I don't know how to do it.

The construction of the author block is contained within an
@IEEEauthorhalign
environment that has\hfills
on either end. This allows the author block to be centred in general. For multiple authors, each\and
(in conference mode) closes the@IEEEauthorhalign
environment, issues an\hfill
and then opens@IEEEauthorhalign
again.In order to introduce a line break and have the author content still be aligned properly, I've defined a new command called
\linebreakand
. It does what every\and
does, excepts introduces a\par
and a new\hfill
for the new line start.
