For emphasis some key features in my texts I use tcolorbox, which is pushed to the outside border. in normal text this work fine but in itemize environment it is pushed more outside then I desire. Apparently its moving to right/left border accordingly to itemize leftmargin and not of text margin:
\documentclass[12pt]{memoir}
\usepackage{calc,lipsum}

\checkandfixthelayout
\newlength{\marginwidth}
\setlength{\marginparwidth}{45mm}
\setlength{\marginparsep}{5mm}

\begin{document}
\lipsum[2]
\begin{example}{<title>}
some text
\end{example}
\lipsum[2]
\begin{itemize}
\item the first item text
\begin{example}{<title>}
Key features of item \dots

\item the second item text

Question: How to convince tcolorbox to be positioned in the itemize environment the same as in normal text ?
Best Answer
You can adjust the settings with
\@totalleftmargin
