Re: using headnumber

["Thomas A. Schmitz" <thomas.schmitz@uni-bonn.de>]

Hi Peter,

thanks for the help! The additional { must have been a fluke with   
copy/paste; wasn't in my file. By sheer stubbornness, I tried until I  
found something that works:
     command={{\determineheadnumber[section]}\ifodd\currentheadnumber 
\resetSlideNumber\incrementSlideNumber \else\incrementSlideNumber \fi}]

So after \determineheadnumber[something], \currentheadnumber appears  
to have that value and doesn't take an argument.

Thanks, and best

Thomas
