Hello everybody and thanks in advance for your advice,

I’m unable to find in the documentation and in the wiki the way to start an itemized list with a number different from 1, for instance with 3.

What I want to achieve is something like:

  1. Insert the key
  2. Try to turn the key
If key is working
3.  Open the door
If key is not working
3.  Change key
4.  Goto step 1
So what is the way to start the list after « If key is not working » with the number 3 ?

You increment the number from a previous item with the “continue” keyword
and set a different value for the first item in a list with the “start” key.

\starttext

\startitemize[n,packed]
\item Insert the key
\item Try to turn the key
\stopitemize

If key is working

\startitemize[n,packed,continue]
\item Open the door
\stopitemize

If key is not working

\startitemize[n,packed][start=3]
\item Change key
\item Goto step 1
\stopitemize

\stoptext
