Additional paragraph in the Table of contents

I have a table of contents implemented in a framework of three columns of text, and have it configured to balance columns. When I generate the table of contents, it gives me a return of extra paragraph at the end, which has degraded the balance of the column. New York fashion to solve this?

The COT function always adds that for some reason any and it's annoying.

  • Paragraph numbering does not appear in the table of contents

    I'm working on a book with several chapters. Within each chapter, I have heading styles that use autodial (position 1 watch 1.1, 1.2, etc.;) Heading 2 is 1.1.1 1.1.2 etc. ; Heading 3 is 1.1.1.1, 1.1.1.2, etc.). These figures show in chapters, but I can't to the appear in the generated table of contents. I tried to add < $chapnum >. < $sectionnum >. < $subsectionnum > to reference the table of contents page, but that only seems to show the chapter TOC number, rather than the chapter title is actually in. I tried auto numbering in the table of contents, but that no longer works. Is it possible to show the numbering of the chapters in the TOC?

    This is what it looks like now:

    Workshop 3: Adding redundancy in a component

    Purpose ........................................... 7 - 1

    Functional objectives... 7 - 1

    Setup .............................................. 7 - 1

    Code files for this workshop... 7 - 2

    This is how I want it to look:

    Workshop 3: Adding redundancy in a component

    7.1 Purpose ........................................... 7 - 1

    7.2 business objectives... 7 - 1

    7.3 Setup .............................................. 7 - 1

    7.4 code files of for this workshop... 7 - 2

    If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you!

    I tried to add <$chapnum>.<$sectionnum>. <$subsectionnum>to the reference TOC page,...

    You do that on reference Page Table of contents of the YourDocNameTOC.fm file,

    or in the body file?

    I just tried:

    for a title 1 with auto-numbering format from:

    <$chapnum>. \t

    and a Heading1TOC format of:

    <$paranum>. <$paratext> <$pagenum>

    on the TOC TOC RP.

    It generated a table of contents entry of:

    2.1 title text 13

    for sample 1st section on page 13 of the file declared Chap 2 and start the p13.

    I didn't even have to add <$chapnum>.

  • Customize the table of contents for epub book

    Hello

    I have a book in ID CS6 file, containing ten chapters, each in its own starting with style heading 1 to "Chapter 1", "2", "Chapter 3" etc. It also contains more documents to cover, notes copyright, acknowledgement of receipt, info editor etc. (not quite formatted).

    Well, when I export to epub and open it in Adobe Digital Editions a table of contents is generated from all the documents, the names of files.

    Is it possible to exclude the entries, I want to be there?

    In addition, I can control the text of each entry? for example, the "cr.indd" file, I want the Notes"copyright" text in TOC.

    Thank you

    Short answer: you can control the TOC navigation by creating a table of contents Style (layout > Style of Table of contents) and including a paragraph style that you want that pulls the titles that you want in the table of contents.

    Then call on this Style of table of contents in the general Panel of the EPUB export dialog box.

    Looks like you need to get some basic information on creating ePub files. Here are the two best sources I know:

    (1) the books of Elizabeth Castro:

    http://www.elizabethcastro.com/EPUB/

    (2) videos of Anne-Marie Concepcion on Lynda.com. She produced videos on creating EPUB from InDesign CS5, 5.5, and 6. www.Lynda.com. (if Bob Levine sees this, it will add a free link of the week for Lynda.com).

  • Has anyone who has worked with doc us MIL - STD and generated with the success of the page numbers in the table of contents?

    I'm creating a template using FrameMaker 7.2.

    MIL - STD dictates works package (such as chapters) page numbers in the format: 0001-1, 2-0001, 0002-1 and 2-0002, etc.

    The problem I encounter draws in this format of the page number in the table of contents generated.

    I used a variable on the Master Page, and generate page numbers in each package to work properly.

    I know that in point 7.2 of the FM, you cannot include a variable in a table of contents generated.

    So I tried changing the variable on the Master Page to text using a paragraph tag (WPnumber), but have not gotten it either works.

    Tried all the other stuff I could think of, too.

    In my view, a part of the problem is that FM cannot have leading zeros when you set the page number or chapter (understandable 99.9% of the time).

    If anyone has suggestions or solutions, I am very interested to hear.

    Thank you.

    1Editor - and puzzled

    I already manually put the zeros.

    I just want to be clear that strikes the zeros directly on the master page does NOT have to include in the table of contents. You then type in the context of the reference to the table of contents also. In addition, you must have separate template and reference pages for chapters 10, 11, etc., in order to obtain the number of zeros correctly.

    With my method, the zeros are introduced as part of the chapternumber itself, in the chapter number of the TEXT. You still have to type but only once for each file.

  • Find/change the question numbers and create the Table of contents

    Hello! I need help to find all my item numbers and apply a paragraph style so I can use them to create a Table of contents page.

    The sample numbers

    #12345

    #12345-5

    #12345-20

    #12345-ABC

    #12345/N

    I tried to enter #^? ^ ? ^ ? ^ ? ^ ? in the search/replace and but it is exactly 5 characters after the sign #. I wonder if you can find all characters starting by # and up until the last characters.

    Once I found all item numbers, how can I apply the paragraph style to have these characters after the sign #? Because I only want to show item numbers without the # sign on the Table of contents/Index page.

    In addition, I have InDesign CS2, which have no function GREP maybe I can do this without the GREP?

    I really appreciate any help. Thank you very much.

    Are your numbers by themselves in a separate paragraph? OTHERWISE you can not USE the table of contents feature to list all the numbers.

    If are, then just look at # in find/replace, then set it to change formatting a new paragraph style (you must create this style in CS2) that you want to include in the table of contents, then as you say, you can use find/replace once more on the history of the TOC to remove the # of all numbers.

  • Problems during the update of the table of contents

    Hello

    does anyone know why additional section numbers and points appear every time I update my OCD? Normally I just delete them.

    Thank you!

    Try to remove the numbering of paragraph TOC style options. I am sure that what is happening is to make a numbered list on the table of contents entries AND pick up the existing numbers in the text.

  • Changing the font styles in the table of contents usingpages 5.6.2

    Hello

    I am writing a scientific assignment and I have some titles that contain italic characters such as: Importance of Bacillus cereus

    When I create a table of contents, these italics seem to disappear and I can't do these italics without making the entire table italic material - that is not what I want.

    I also have the same problem with the degrees symbol which is great script in my titles, but appears as '0' in the table of contents.

    Can anyone help please?

    Thank you!

    When you build a Table of contents, Pages v5.6.2 uses a brush regular Helvetica on all text in the generated TOC. He made his farewell to all the attributes of fonts can set up for your titles and headings. We can not selectively reapply text attributes to a part of a table of contents entry.

    If I use the degree symbol in the title or the title paragraph style, she survives as baseline Exhibitor in the generated table of contents. My degree symbol is entered as shift + option + 8 (on a U.S. keyboard).

  • Pages is wrapping the row number in the table of contents

    So, I have a document with two paragraph styles I want to include in the table of contents.  A style with page numbers and the other without.  So I insert a table of contents (it's in its own section, because I want the table of contents to be their own style page numbers) and I get the table of contents, but instead of text that is labeled with the style of the paragraph to the left and right page numbers, I get the text containing the tag with the style of the paragraph to the left and then click the line below (no paragraph don't symbols even if it's on the next line) a blue arrow pointing to the right in the middle of the table of contents box, then on the next line (once more no paragraph symbol), to the left I get the page number.

    Anyone know what is happening or how to get the right page number on the same line as the text?

    Thank you

  • in the Table of contents, my photos are not displayed, can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

    I am writing an iBook on a Mac Book Pro of the retina, and when I go to see the table of contents it shows no picture... so I do something wrong, or not do something, everyone knows what this might be? Here you have a Table of contents on iBook author image. It is said that there are 5 chapters and Chapter 3 marking and it should show the main image of this chapter and down a row of thumbnails of all pages of this chapter. Nothing shows... I'd appreciate any info to solve this problem. Thank you.

    Quack quack.

    the thumbnails do not appear when you look at the table of contents to the author of the ib.  You must create the .ibooks file, do a preview for mac, and open it with the ibooks software and you will see knock thumbnails view or put your book on a iPad and if switch you to the comparable iPad display, thumbnails will be visible there.

    In addition, you must file an image file in the placeholder, which will be visible on each index type toc page, yes a picture shown throughout the book.

    good luck with your book and I hope you sell 1 million copies.

  • How to reorder the Table of contents?

    Hi all

    In Adobe Captivate 8 I'll create a Table of contents for my introduction to e-Learning. I found the tutorial on Adobe on how to create it.  I know I can you rearrange slides easily in Captivate. My question is this. The Table of contents will revamp the as well as slides or I have to do separately?

    Thank you for your help.

    You need to just reset the TOC, there is a tiny button at the bottom which allows to reset. At least if you have best practices:

    1. to name the slides with the name that you want to appear in the table of contents
    2. the slides that you want to have a higher level and the name of the Group of groups with the name that you want to appear in the table of contents

    In addition I always recommend during training, waiting, with the creation of the table of contents, until the project is completed. Then you can do more editing in the table of contents, such as the creation of more than two levels (groups + slides will be paid the flimstrip, not more levels).

  • How to change the table of contents

    Awhile back, I created a table in my document and it works very well. Now I need to add a section and I completely forgot how do. If anyone can help?

    Your table of contents is pulling one or more Styles (probably the stars) paragraph of the document. Add the new article he style identical to existing sections (same paragraph Styles), then update the table of contents (right click anywhere in it and choose to update Table of contents). Unless you have a few other wrinkles, that should come at the end.

  • Include graphs of the icon in the table of contents (TOC)?

    Question

    Is it possible to have icons (i.e. frameworks anchored inline) automatically appear in the table of contents?

    (We translate into 15 languages, so manually add graphics to the table of contents, after its creation isn't really a viable option).

    Scenario of

    In our books, we include a troubleshooting section explaining her mean different icons of warning symbol. (Kind of like engine lights check various you see in cars). It would be nice to show the actual icons in the table of contents, do I hope this a little easier to find info.


    We do not include the icons in actual positions in the book using anchored frames "Shrink Wrap", but each anchored picture is replaced with a space in the auto-generated table of contents. (This is what we want in most cases, just not this particular case).

    If you are ready to have a paragraph format separate for each variation of the icon, you may be able to use the image above each corresponding to xxxTOC tag property to its icon, using negative space Frame - over hack Arnis described lately to:

    The numbered steps circled are possible?

    This will pollute the paragraph of course catalog.

    I'm rather tempted to use a rendering of the font tool to convert your icons of character glyphs in Unicode E000-F8FF private use area *. Then, the icons are just text introduced in each topic. Note: in a position of switching character Formats breaks automatic hypertext in the table of contents. See:
    Color of the page number in the table of contents

    The problem of termination of the link could be avoided by using a Unicode open license text font which is similar to your favorite title font and adding glyphs to icon for private use. Then there is no change of character format in the relevant TOC entries. Of course, turning your icons in glyph police presume you have vector art for them which is easily converted to outlines, otherwise it will be a great effort.

  • How to insert the table of contents within a table

    Using FrameMaker 12, I create a table of contents within a table. This means, 1st column contains the number of paragraphs, the 2nd column of the text of the paragraphs, the 3rd column the page numbers. Of course, each item must fill each cell of the table. I downloaded an example.

    TOC special format.jpg

    Create a table of contents in normal conditions and use tabs as separators between the page number and section number, <$paratext>.

    Then use convert FM to the usefulness of the table to convert the table of contents for a table using the table design appropriate to your catalog.

    It's a manual, and you will have to redo this each time that you update the table, but it should only take a few clicks to do. Automate the steps with a script would make it less painful.

  • Question: adding prefixes to the table of contents chapter entries?

    Hello I would like to know if anyone can help understand me how to format Table of contents entries to include a prefix.

    I want to each chapter entry in my table of contents to include the prefixes of words Chapter 1, Chapter 2... etc.

    For example. Just to say that my first chapter is called "aseptic".

    Currently the aseptic 'A technical' chapter title is formatted with a paragraph style called "chapter title", and this paragraph style is included in the "Styles of Table of contents.

    So for the moment my OCD simply shows the words "One Technique aseptic" followed by the page number.

    I want that entry of table of contents to say: "Chapter 1 asepsis.

    But I don't want the words "Chapter 1" to appear on the title page of actual chapter. "»

    Also, I want to be able to add unique style to the prefixes (I guess with character styles). So that I can make the "Chapter 1"style a little differently to "Aseptic", while both appear on the same line.

    Is it possible to do? I know that I can just click on the table of contents, and then make the changes directly, but it's not ideal because if I click on "update the Table of contents" then all changes are lost. I want the added prefixes dynamically so that they remain in place even if chapter headings are changed in the future.

    Thanks for any help.

    Of course, I see no problem:
