Annotation "in margins" not aligning correctly with 2-column answer sheet

Added by Devin Casenhiser about 11 years ago

I'm having a little formatting trouble with the answer sheet annotations when my answer sheet is printed in two columns:

The left column annotations print fine, but the right column annotations print over the first column's answer bubbles rather than in the right margin (which is where they've always printed before).

Answer sheet code is as follows:

\AMCformBegin    

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%   EDIT ANSWER SHEET HEADER BELOW   %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

{\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}\hspace*{\fill}\AMCcode{etu}{9}\hspace*{\fill}
\begin{minipage}[b]{6.5cm}

\hfill\champnom{\fbox{    
    \begin{minipage}{.9\linewidth}
      Firstname and lastname:

      \vspace*{.5cm}\dotfill

      \vspace*{.5cm}\dotfill
      \vspace*{1mm}
    \end{minipage}
  }}

\vspace{3ex}

$\longleftarrow{}$\hspace{0pt plus 0cm} Please encode \emph{all 9 digits} of your student number in the boxes to the left,
and write your first and last names in the box above.

  \hfill\vspace{5ex}\end{minipage}\hspace*{\fill}

  }
\vspace{3ex}
{\large\bf\center Answer sheet:}

\begin{flushleft}
  Fill in selected boxes \textit{completely}. Erase mistakes cleanly.
\end{flushleft}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ANSWER SHEET CIRCLE FORMAT %%%%
\begin{multicols}{2}
\widowpenalties 1 10000
\AMCform    
\end{multicols}
\clearpage     

}  

Project preferences "questions marks position" is set to "in the margins". This has always worked in the past, but not with this new test for some reason.

Running 1.2.1475

Cheers!
Devin

This is a bug appeared since I rewrote the annotation stuff. Please try with revision r1478.
