-\subsection{Customizations}
+\subsection{Fill in the blank questions}
+\label{sec:Fillin}
+
+\indcstart{fillin}
+\index{fill in the blank|(}
+
+There is a \verb"\fillin" command that prints underlined empty space
+for creating ``fill in the blank'' questions. The \verb"\fillin"
+command can take two optional arguments:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item the first optional argument is the answer to the question, which
+ will be printed above the line when answers are being printed, and
+\item the second optional argument is the length of line to be
+ printed, if you want some length other than the default.
+\end{itemize}
+If answers are being printed and you supply the answer as the first
+(and possibly only) optional argument, then the answer is printed
+subject to the declarations in the argument of the most recent
+\verb"\CorrectChoiceEmphasis" command. It is centered on the line
+unless it is too long, in which case it extends to the right of the
+line. The default length of the line and the distance down from the
+baseline of the text to the empty line can both be customized (see
+section~\ref{sec:CustFillin}).
+
+For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{questions}
+ \question \fillin is the color of my true love's hair.
+\end{questions}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{questions}
+ \question \fillin is the color of my true love's hair.
+\end{questions}
+If, instead, you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{questions}
+ \question \fillin[Black] is the color of my true love's hair.
+\end{questions}
+\end{verbatim}
+then if answers are not being printed you'll get
+\begin{questions}
+ \question \fillin[Black] is the color of my true love's hair.
+\end{questions}
+and if answers are being printed you'll get
+\printanswers
+\begin{questions}
+ \question \fillin[Black] is the color of my true love's hair.
+\end{questions}
+\noprintanswers
+
+For another example, if answers are being printed and you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{questions}
+ \question The magic word is \fillin[prestidigitator].
+\end{questions}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\printanswers
+\begin{questions}
+ \question The magic word is \fillin[prestidigitator].
+\end{questions}
+\noprintanswers
+which shows what happens when the answer is too long for the fillin
+line. If, however, you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{questions}
+ \question The magic word is \fillin[prestidigitator][2in].
+\end{questions}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\printanswers
+\begin{questions}
+ \question The magic word is \fillin[prestidigitator][2in].
+\end{questions}
+\noprintanswers
+
+\verb"\fillin" eats (and ignores) space characters appearing before
+the first optional argument. It also eats (and ignores) space
+characters appearing after the first optional argument and before the
+second optional argument. However, if exactly one optional argument
+appears, and if there are one or more space characters following that
+one optional argument, then those spaces are replaced by a single
+space character, but not eaten.

+You can customize the \verb"\fillin" command by changing
+\begin{itemize}
+\item the default length of the underlined space,
+\item the distance below the text baseline that the line is printed, and
+\item the emphasis applied to the answer (when answers are being
+ printed).
+\end{itemize}
+The default length of the underlined space is called
+\verb"\fillinlinelength"\indc{fillinlinelength}, and its value was set
+by the command
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"\setlength\fillinlinelength{1in}"
+\end{center}
+You can change this by giving a new \verb"\setlength" command.
+
+The line is printed a distance of

+\begin{center}
+ \verb"\setlength\answerclearance{0.2ex}"
+\end{center}
+You can change this by giving a new \verb"\setlength" command. Note:
+\verb"\answerclearance" is also used by the \verb"\answerline" command
+(see section~\ref{sec:ShortAns}).

+When answers are being printed and you include the optional argument
+containing the answer, then the answer is printed subject to the
+declarations in the argument of the most recent

+You can fill space with a grid with the command
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"\fillwithgrid{length}"
+\end{center}
+which fills vertical space of height \texttt{length} with a grid that
+runs the length of the current line. That is, it extends from the
+current left margin (which depends on whether we're in a question,
+part, subpart, or subsubpart) to the right margin.
+The default grid size and grid line thickness were set by the
+commands
+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}{l}
+ \verb"\setlength{\gridsize}{5mm}"\\
+ \verb"\setlength{\gridlinewidth}{0.1pt}"
+ \end{tabular}
+\end{center}
+\index{customization!\texttt{\char`\\fillwithgrid}} You can change
+either or both of those by giving new \verb"\setlength" commands. The
+period of the grid is \verb"\gridsize" (both horizontally and
+vertically). That is, the horizontal distance from the left edge of
+one vertical line to the left edge of the next vertical line is
+\verb"\gridsize", as is the vertical distance from the top edge of one
+horizontal line to the top edge of the next horizontal line. Thus,
+each square has outer side length equal to
+\verb"\gridsize+\gridlinewidth".
+
+By default, the created grids are in black. However, if you give the
+commands\indc{colorgrids}
+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}{l}
+ \verb"\usepackage{color}"\\
+ \verb"\colorgrids"
+ \end{tabular}
+\end{center}
+then the grids will be in color, by default a light gray. That
+default color was defined by the
+command\indc{definecolor}\indt{GridColor}
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"\definecolor{GridColor}{gray}{0.8}"
+\end{center}
+\index{customization!\texttt{\char`\\fillwithgrid}} You can change the
+color by giving a new \verb"\definecolor" command to redefine the
+color \texttt{GridColor}.
+
+
+For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{questions}
+ \question
+ In no more than one paragraph, explain why the earth is round.
+
+ \smallskip\fillwithgrid{1in}

+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}{l}
+ \verb"\fillwithgrid{\stretch{1}}"\\

+\end{center}
+If you want to equally distribute the space for the answers among
+several questions on the page, then just put
+\verb"\fillwithgrid{\stretch{1}}"\index{space!allocating} after each
+question on the page and use \verb"\newpage" to end the page. You can
+also distribute the available space in some other ratio. For example,
+to give one of the questions on the page twice as much space as any of
+the others, put \verb"\fillwithgrid{\stretch{2}}" after that question,
+\verb"\fillwithgrid{\stretch{1}}" after each of the others, and use
+\verb"\newpage" to end the page.
+
+You can also insert a grid only when solutions are not being

-% Version 2.321$\beta$, 2011/05/15:
-%
-% New environments: EnvUplevel and EnvFullwidth
-%
-% The EnvUplevel environment is similar to the command \uplevel,

-% Version 2.320$\beta$, 2011/04/16:
-%
-% New document class options: cancelspace
-% nocancelspace
-% New commands: \cancelspace
-% \nocancelspace
-%
-% Using the document class option cancelspace is equivalent to giving
-% the command \cancelspace at the beginning of the file. The default is
-% \nocancelspace. Thus, the document class option nocancelspace has no
-% effect, but is there to avoid errors if a user is confused.
-%
-% If the user uses the document class option cancelspace and if
-% solutions are not being printed, then any space that would be added by
-% an optional argument to the solution, solutionorbox, solutionorlines,
-% or solutionordottedlines environments will not be added.
-%
-% If solutions are being printed (because the user used the document
-% class option answers or gave the command \printanswers), then the

-% Version 2.319$\beta$, 2011/04/11:
-%
-% We fixed an obscure bug, in which if the user gives a \qformat

-% command, but they *do* give a \droppoints command, there is an
-% error (\padded@point@block undefined).
-%
-%--------------------------------------------------------------------
-% Version 2.318$\beta$, 2011/04/05:
-%
-% \qformat and \bonusqformat are now totally independent.
-% That is: \qformat doesn't affect bonus questions, and \noqformat
-% no longer cancels \bonusqformat.
-%
-% New command: \nobonusqformat
-% \nobonusqformat does for \bonusqformat what \noqformat does for
-% \qformat.
-%
-%--------------------------------------------------------------------
-% Version 2.317$\beta$, 2011/04/02:
-%
-% We changed the definition of \numcoverpages so that on the first run
-% of latex (when \exam@lastcoverpage isn't yet defined), \numcoverpages
-% will expand to
-% 0\mbox{\normalfont\bf ??}
-% instead of
-% \mbox{\normalfont\bf ??}
-% so that the construction \romannumeral\numcoverpages will not generate
-% an error on the first run of latex.

-% We also made changes and corrections to comments.

-% Version 2.316$\beta$, 2010/12/22:

-% \pointsinrange{rangename}
-% \bonuspointsinrange{rangename}
-%
-% If `rangename' is the name of a grading range defined using
-% \begingradingrange{rangename} and \endgradingrange{rangename}, then
-% \pointsinrange{rangename} expands to the number of points in that
-% grading range and \bonuspointsinrange{rangename} expands to the number
-% of bonus points in that grading range.
-% We also changed the checkboxes and oneparcheckboxes environments so
-% that, when solutions are being printed, a \CorrectChoice will be
-% printed with \CorrectChoiceEmphasis (along with the \checkedchar
-% that marks the \CorrectChoice). This brings the behavior in line

-% This is for when some of a question spills onto the next page, but
-% that page doesn't have any parts, subparts, subsubparts, or choices
-% beginning on theat page (which means that the \ifincomplete command

%
-% Bug fix: When solutions are not being printed, the solution,

%--------------------------------------------------------------------
-% Version 2.310$\beta$, 2010/01/09:
-%
-% New command: \bonusqformat
-%
-% The \bonusqformat command takes one argument, with the same
-% description as for the argument of the \qformat command.
+% Version 2.405$\beta$, 2012/10/21
+%
+% It is now possible to use a parts, subparts, or subsubparts
+% environment inside one of the solution environments (solution,
+% solutionorbox, solutionorlines, solutionordottedlines, or
+% solutionorgrid) without getting problems from multiply defined
+% labels or having its points (if any) counted as being actual points
+% on the exam.
+%
+% Any \part, \subpart, or \subsubpart command inside one of the
+% solution environments now writes a \PgInfo command in the .aux file
+% of the form question2@object3, but no labels and no other \PgInfo
+% commands. In addition, if there are points assigned to any of these
+% commands inside any of the solution environments, those points are
+% not added to the points of the question or the points on the page,
+% and do not affect any gradetables or pointtables.
%
-% Note added 2011/04/05: Version 2.318$\beta$ changes the behavior so
-% that \qformat and \bonusqformat are now completely independent!
-%
-% If the user gives a \qformat command, then the argument of that
-% command is used to format both questions and bonusquestions. If,
-% after giving the \qformat command, the user gives a \bonusqformat
-% command, then the argument of the \bonusqformat command will be used
-% to format bonus questions.
-%
-% Note: The \bonusqformat command must be given *after* the \qformat
-% command, or else the \bonusqformat command will have no effect.
-%
-% Note: If the user hasn't given a \qformat command, then a
-% \bonusqformat command will have no effect.
-%
-% Note: If the user gives a \qformat command and a \bonusqformat
-% command, and then later says \noqformat, then the arguments of both
-% the \qformat and \bonusqformat commands are no longer usable. That
-% is, if the user later on once again says \qformat, and wants the bonus
-% questions to have a different format from the questions, then another
-% \bonusqformat command must be given.
-%
-% Note added 2011/04/05:: The above is changed in version 2.318$\beta$.
-% \qformat and \bonusqformat are now completely independent.
-% \noqformat cancels only \qformat, and the new command

+% \nocolorgrids
%
-% We fixed a bug that arose only when the user used a figure or
-% table environment that floated to the top of a page. If that
-% happened, then a full page's worth of text was placed below
-% the figure or table, makeing the text run over the footline and off
-% the bottom of the page.
+% The default grid size and grid line thickness were set by the
+% commands
%
-% We fixed this by commenting out several lines at the end of
-% \@setheadheight and @setfootheight.
+% \setlength{\gridsize}{5mm}
+% \setlength{\gridlinewidth}{0.1pt}

-%--------------------------------------------------------------------
-% Version 2.305$\beta$, 2009/01/30:
-%
-% We fixed a bug to keep page breaks from occurring inside of
-% \makeemptybox. We also added \begingroup \endgroup for the off
-% chance that someone was using box0 and didn't want us to change it.
-%
-% We also fixed a bug in the solutionorbox environment that showed
-% itself when the user used \stretch in the optional argument.
+% You can change either or both of those by giving new \setlength
+% commands. The period of the grid is \gridsize (both horizontally
+% and vertically). That is, the horizontal distance from the left
+% edge of one vertical line to the left edge of the next vertical line
+% is \gridsize, as is the vertical distance from the top edge of one
+% horizontal line to the top edge of the next horizontal line. Thus,
+% each square has outer side length equal to \gridsize+\gridlinewidth.

%--------------------------------------------------------------------
-% Version 2.304$\beta$, 2009/01/22:
-%
-% We rewrote the definition of \makeemptybox and the solutionorbox
-% environment (created in version 2.303).
-%
-% The argument to \makeemptybox can now be either a length, or \fill, or
-% \stretch{number}.
-%
-% The optional argument to the solutionorbox environment can also be
-% either a length, or \fill, or \stretch{number}. If the optional
-% argument is omitted, then no box is printed when printanswers is
-% false.
-%
-% The minimum box height is \minboxheight, whose value is set by the
-% command
+% Version 2.403$\beta$, 2012/08/29:
%
-% \setlength\minboxheight{.1in}
-%
-% This can be changed by giving a new setlength command, but it's not
-% likely that anyone actually wants a box of height less than .1 inch.
+% We changed the code for the command \fillin (which had been modified
+% in version 2.402beta) so that if only one optional argument is used,
+% a space following that optional argument will not be ignored. We
+% did this in such a way that the second optional argument will be
+% recognized even when spaces appear in between the optional
+% arguments.

+% Version 2.402$\beta$, 2012/08/21:
%
-% New command: \makeemptybox
-% New environment: solutionorbox
+% We modified the command \fillin that we had created in version
+% 2.401beta. \fillin now takes two optional arguments (and no required
+% arguments).
%
-% \makeemptybox takes one argument, which is a length, and it creates
-% an empty box of width the length of the current line and of height
-% equal to the argument. That is, the box extends from the current
-% left margin (which depends on whether we're in a question, part,
-% subpart, or subsubpart) to the right margin.
-%
-% The solutionorbox environment is similar to the solution
-% environment, except that if printanswers is false and an optional
-% argument is specified, then instead of leaving that much blank space
-% we print an empty box of that height. The optional argument must be
-% a dimension; it can not be \fill. If the optional argument is
-% missing or equal to 0pt, then when printanswers is false we print
-% nothing at all.
+% \fillin can take two optional arguments, as in
%
-% Note: This is changed in version 2.304. As of that version, the
-% argument can be a length, or \fill, or \stretch{number}.

-% Version 2.302$\beta$, 2008/10/18:
+% The first optional argument is the answer to be printed above the line
+% when \printanswers is in effect; the default value is empty. That
+% line is printed a distance of \answerclearance below the baseline.
%
-% New commands: \numcoverpages and \totalnumpages
+% The second optional argument is the length of the line that we print;
+% the default value is \fillinlinelength. The value of
+% \fillinlinelength is set with the command
%
-% \numcoverpages inserts the number of pages occupied by the
-% coverpages environment. If there is no coverpages environment,
-% it inserts 0.
+% \setlength\fillinlinelength{1in}
%
-% \totalnumpages inserts the sum of \numcoverpages and \numpages.
-% Note that if there are pages preceding a coverpages environment, then
-% those pages will not be counted by \totalnumpages.
+% and can be changed by giving a new \setlength command.
%
-% We also added \relax after some \ifnum comparisons and commented
-% out some line endings to remove, e.g., an unwanted space inserted
-% by \ifcontinuation when the page is a continuation.
+% When answers are being printed, the first optional argument is
+% printed subject to the declarations in the argument of the last
+% \CorrectChoiceEmphasis command. It is centered on the line unless
+% it is too long, in which case it extends to the right of the line.

+% This is for use in fill in the blank questions. This command inserts

+
+
+% \fillwithgrid is similar to \fillwithlines, except that it
+% fills the space with a grid.

+% \fillwithgrid takes one argument, which is either a length or \fill

+% grid that runs the length of the current line. That is, it extends
+% from the current left margin (which depends on whether we're in a

+%
+% The default grid size and grid line thickness were set by the
+% commands
+%
+% \setlength{\gridsize}{5mm}
+% \setlength{\gridlinewidth}{0.1pt}
+%
+% You can change either or both of those by giving new \setlength
+% commands. The period of the grid is \gridsize (both horizontally
+% and vertically). That is, the horizontal distance from the left
+% edge of one vertical line to the left edge of the next vertical line
+% is \gridsize, as is the vertical distance from the top edge of one
+% horizontal line to the top edge of the next horizontal line. Thus,
+% each square has outer side length equal to \gridsize+\gridlinewidth.
+
+% By default, the created grids are in black. However, if you give the
+% commands
+%
+% \usepackage{color}
+% \colorgrids
+%
+% then the grids will be in color, by default a light gray. That
+% default color was defined by the command

+% The solutionbox environment is different from the other solution
+% environments (solution, solutionorbox, solutionorlines,
+% solutionordottedlines, and solutionorgrid), in that
+%
+% (1) The box is always printed, whether answers are being printed
+% or not.
+%
+% (2) The argument giving the size of the box is a required
+% argument, not an optional argument, and so it should be enclosed
+% in braces, not in brackets. It can be either a length or
+% \stretch{number}.
+%
+% (3) We make no use of the TheSolution environment; the solutionbox
+% environment is completely freestanding.
+%
+% If answers are not being printed then only the box is printed, with
+% nothing in it. If answers are being printed, then the solution is
+% printed inside of the box.
+%
+% Note: It's the user's responsibility to be sure that the box is
+% large enough to hold the solution! If the solution takes up too
+% much vertical space, then it will spill out of the bottom of the
+% box, overwriting whatever follows the box.
