Dear list,

I have an error when I try to insert a block inside a conditional mode (but 
there is two nested conditional mode.. is this the problem ?).  

In my courses notes, I insert some blocks (named «  Complement » in the minimal 
exemple below) when in « Professor » mode. This works fine, as shown in the 
first «  \beginComplement … \endComplement  » of my example below. 

But now I have to use another condition for some blocks, depending of the 
number of the current course. So I insert my block with a condition, here « 
CourseOne » :

        \enablemode[CourseOne]
        \doifmode{CourseOne}{
                \beginComplement
                Another complementary slide. 
                \endComplement
        }

But this does not work :

The problem can be summarized in this minimal non working example :

Blocks and modes usually works fine for me, but here, I do not understand my 
error.
Thanks for any help !

Note : in case this way of doing things seems a bit silly, here are more 
explanations. I do use mode « CourseOne »  here because in the real life, the 
content in the condition «  \doifmode{CourseOne}{ …} » is read in an external 
file, containing material for « CourseOne », « CourseTwo », etc. The setup is 
then, in the main file :

% Main file : begin ----------------

Bla bla bla ...

\enablemode[CourseOne]
\input ComplementMaterial.tex
\disablemode[CourseOne]

Bla bla bla ...

\enablemode[CourseOne]
\input ComplementMaterial.tex
\disablemode[CourseOne]

% Main file : end ----------------

And in the « ComplementMaterial.tex » there is :

% ComplementMaterial.tex —————————

        \doifmode{CourseOne}{
                \beginComplement
                A complementary slide but only for course number 1. 
                \endComplement

                \beginComplement
                Another complementary slide but only for course number 1. 
                \endComplement
        }

        \doifmode{CourseTwo}{
                \beginComplement
                A complementary slide but only for course number 2. 
                \endComplement

                \beginComplement
                Another complementary slide but only for course number 2. 
                \endComplement
        }
