Taco et all,
From what I could deduce, our former macro for placeanswers was a
group.
\def\placeanswers{
\bgroup
\doifmodeelse{short}
{
\keepblocks[shortsubanswer,longsubanswer]
\answers{Answers}\vskip 1em\startcolumnset[answers]
\selectblocks[shortanswer][criterium=section]
\stopcolumnset
}
{
\keepblocks[shortsubanswer,longsubanswer]
\answers{Solutions}\vskip 1em
\selectblocks[longanswer][criterium=section]
}
\egroup
}
It occurred at the end of an exercise set like this:
%%% ENDTESTBANK
%%%================================================
\stopquestions
\placeanswers\kern0pt
\stopcomponent
So when the group was finished, the header for the component took
over. Here is the fix I found. I just set new headers for the rest of
the way.
\def\placeanswers{\doifmode{long}{%
\page[yes]
\def\headermarkleft{{\sc Chapter \headnumber[chapter]}}
\def\headermarkright{{\sc{}Section \headnumber[section]}}
\setupheadertexts[][\headermarkright][\headermarkleft][]}
\bgroup
\doifmodeelse{short}
{
\keepblocks[shortsubanswer,longsubanswer]
\answers{Answers}\vskip 1em\startcolumnset[answers]
\selectblocks[shortanswer][criterium=section]
\stopcolumnset
}
{
\keepblocks[shortsubanswer,longsubanswer]
\answers{Solutions}\vskip 1em
\selectblocks[longanswer][criterium=section]
}
\egroup
}
So now when we compile with:
texmfstart texexec --mode=long,paging section1exercise
We get what we want, which is no page numbers in the headers once the
solutions start. You can see the result at:
http://msenux.redwoods.edu/IntAlgText2/chapter2/section1solutions.pdf
We have a paging mode and a perl script that syncs the page numbers
at the beginning of this document with the chapter page numbers.
Thanks.
