I'm trying to use blocks for answers in a text, but cannot get the numbering to work as I want. I have read about \processblocks at the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/processblocks), but I'm not sure that is my cure. I probably miss something easy...
The problem is probably easiest shown by an example:
%%% \defineblock[A] \hideblocks[A]
\defineenumeration[A][ text=A, prefix=yes, prefixsegments=chapter, way=bychapter, ]
\starttext
\chapter{First chapter}
\beginA \startA My first answer in the first chapter. \stopA \endA
\beginA \startA My second answer in the first chapter. \stopA \endA
\chapter{Second chapter}
\beginA \startA My first answer in the second chapter. \stopA \endA
\beginA \startA My second answer in the second chapter. \stopA \endA
\chapter{Answers} \useblocks[A] \stoptext %%%
I get, in the Answer chapter
A 3.1, A 3.2, A 3.3 and A 3.4.
What I want to have in the answer chapter is
A 1.1, A 1.2, A 2.1 and A 2.2.
(to follow the numbering in the chapters where the blocks were defined).
Is it possible? What have I missed? Blocks only store their content without expanding counters etc. and when you flush them you have the same result as putting them into the appendices by hand. Related: Is there a better way to set answers to questions? (Perhaps not having to write both the \begin... \start... \stop... \end... for every question? \setupblock[A][before=\startA,after=\stopA]
but you can’t use the optional argument for a enumerations anymore (e.g. to set a title) with this method. Wolfgang
