In-line lists with new templates

[hunterlehmann]

I am trying to create an in-line list which is properly tagged as list to use in exam/quiz writing (inspired by the oneparcheckboxes environment in the exam document class; see the image below).

The documentation in https://texdoc.org/serve/blocks-doc/0 mentions that such a list like enumitem* from the enumitem package would be created by using a different block template than the standard lists, but I don't understand which keys to modify in the list-block template to result in an in-line list instead of a vertical one. Can anyone offer advice on where to look to learn more here?

sorry, but the simple answer is that we haven't yet provided a template for inline lists, which is why you can't do that yet. However, the example you gave above seems to be yet another type of lists and not one that I would call "inline". Inline would be some thing like a) within the running paragraph b) without a lot of extra spacing for each item c) like this example here.

Yours seem to be more like something like a list with several columns (but probably horizontally oriented). I guess that would need yet another type of template and it would be helpful if you spell out what kind of parameterisation you would expect (as well as what precisely the semantics should be).
