Why does the includeonly command not stepcounter the chaptercounter for omitted chapters?
I'm a big fan of the includeonly
command, to keep pagecounts intact while only printing specific chapters. But I'm wondering why chaptercounters are not stepped in a scenario such as this one:
documentclass{report}
usepackage{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{chapterone.tex}
chapter{First Title}
Text
end{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{chaptertwo.tex}
chapter{Second Title}
Text
end{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{chapterthree.tex}
chapter{Third Title}
Text
end{filecontents}
includeonly{chapterone,chapterthree}
begin{document}
include{chapterone}
include{chaptertwo}
%stepcounter{chapter} % I have to manually step it here to get the right chapter number for three
include{chapterthree}
end{document}
If LaTeX goes through the content of chaptertwo to determine how many pages it is skipping over in order to start at the correct number for subsequent chapters, is there a reason why it does not check/step chaptercounters?
Or am I using it incorrectly or did not understand something?
