Hi all,
I have a counter in an itemize environment which I need to increment by using
\incrementcounter[NameOfTheCounter]
However this does not work in the following example, maybe due to the use of
blocks, or some other reason.
I define two blocks, one for exercises, one for the solutions.
Then in each exercise I have a certain number of questions, presented with an
itemgroup named Questions.
Analogously I have an itemgroup named Answers, which appear in the solution to
an exercise. Now my problem is that some questions don’t have an answer
included (for instance they are too easy…) and I need to increment the counter
by saying
\incrementcounter[Answers]
But this does not work, for an unknown reason. (See below)
Can anyone give an advice?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards: OK
