Individual counters for Problems, Examples, etc.?

[Bernt Lie]

Thanks, Daniel

The "clue" was to know that it is under Modules... I tried to search the User's Guide, etc., but didn't find the needed help there.

document > parameters > modules

Scroll down to the end to see the various "theorems..." options. They are well explained, and I guess you should find one that does what you want.
