I am trying to solve problem with nested frame environments which must be both breakable. It is not important to use tcolorbox if there is some better alternative.

Is it possible to display it correctly? Imagine the situation below. Thanks.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[most]{tcolorbox}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}

    \begin{tcolorbox}[breakable, enhanced]
        \lipsum[1-6]

        \begin{tcolorbox}[breakable, enhanced]
            \lipsum[1-6]
        \end{tcolorbox}

    \end{tcolorbox}
\end{document}

    The tcolorbox manual clearly states: Nesting of breakable box inside a breakable box is not possible! The inner breakable specification` will be ignored. Perhaps you should state what you really want to achieve

The best without further information you can achieve is to use enforce breakable, but as the manual of tcolorbox states:

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[most]{tcolorbox}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}

    \begin{tcolorbox}[breakable, enhanced]
        \lipsum[1-6]

        \begin{tcolorbox}[enforce breakable, enhanced]
            \lipsum[1-6]
        \end{tcolorbox}

    \end{tcolorbox}
\end{document}

The screen shot shows the broken outer tcolorbox which ends in the middle of nowhere, the remaining contents appear on the 3rd and 4th pages. (not shown here)

  • Thanks. I know about this. That's why I am asking if there is any other breakable environment which will work in tcolorbox.
