I am trying to put brackets around my question label as follows: \renewcommand{\questionlabel}{(\thequestion)}
However, when I do this, the points in the right margin are not perfectly aligned as shown:
However, when I remove the first bracket around the question label as follows: \renewcommand{\questionlabel}{\thequestion)}, the alignment is not impacted. See below
Can someone please explain why the alignment changes when I add a bracket to the front of the question label. I really want to have the question labels as (a), (b) , etc. But this alignment issue is driving me insane. Thanks
