Description

In some exams you want to use multiple choice questions and open questions.
This describes the situation when you use a separate answer sheet.
While mc questions can be put into a two column layout (no problem if you have 6 or less choices), but the answers to open questions need
more space when hand written.
This could be accomplished if the \AMCform command was re-factored such that by default combines all sections (elements), but that it would be possible to also render the elements separately.
So e.g. a command \\AMCformElement{element name } as in \\AMCformElement{general} and \\AMCformElement{open} would do the trick for me.

Thanks for you suggestion.
Starting with revision hg:7e107b6c06a0 (included in version 1.3.0+hg2018-02-25-1 from current test PPA), you can use something like

  \begin{multicols}{2}
    \AMCformFilter{!\AMCifcategory{open}}
  \end{multicols}

  \AMCpostOquest=1mm
  \AMCformFilter{\AMCifcategory{open}}
