Same counter for different tcolorbox theorems












1














I have two different types of tcbtheorems: theorem and lemma, defined as below.



newtcbtheorem[number within=section]{theorem}{Theorem}{some config options}{thm}
newtcbtheorem[number within=section]{lemma}{Lemma}{some config options}{lem}


If I, somewhere in my document, have



begin{theorem}{}{}
theorem
end{theorem}

begin{lemma}{}{}
lemma
end{lemma}


It produces "Theorem 1.1" and "Lemma 1.1," whereas I'd like it to produce "Theorem 1.1" and then "Lemma 1.2."

    Please provide us with a complete compilable example, which starts with documentclass and ends with end{document}. (And if I am not mistaken this has not too much to do with tcolorbox, rather you have to use a shared counter for your theorems.)

Just add the option use counter from=theorem when defining the new lemma newtcbtheorem



documentclass{article}
usepackage{tcolorbox}
tcbuselibrary{theorems}
newtcbtheorem[number within=section]{theorem}{Theorem}{}{thm}
newtcbtheorem[number within=section,
use counter from=theorem % <----------------
]{lemma}{Lemma}{}{lem}

begin{document}
section{title section}
begin{theorem}{}{}
theorem
end{theorem}

begin{lemma}{}{}
lemma
end{lemma}
end{document}
