Go to the source of a table of contents entry

I know that I can use the Bookmarks panel to go to the source of the page of a table of contents entry. Is it possible to go to the source of the paragraph so that the text cursor will go to the exact paragraph which is the source of the table of contents entry?

Petteri,

As you suggested, I created a shortcut for the command of hyperlinks: go to Destination.

However, my table of contents entries are not in the hyperlinks Panel. they are listed in the Bookmarks panel. So, I don't know how the shortcut will help to to get to the destination of a table of contents entry, or how the shortcut differs by selecting the same command in the context menu of the control panel.

Give advice on how to use the method you suggested to find the destination of a table of contents entry. Once found the TOC destination, how can I know what is the exact point - is there indication, such as the slider is inserted in the paragraph?

The table of contents entries are disconnected from their sources. They are not hyperlinks. In InDesign, there is no way to move from an entry of table of contents to its source, given that in FrameMaker

In the layout > Table of contents, the option dialog box create bookmarks PDF does exactly that - makes bookmarks PDF.

InDesign TOC entries and the index entries require allows you to check hyperlinks in the section Include the export PDF dialog box to create them as clickable links in the exported PDF file.

Kind regards

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of the use of a table of contents?

    Captivate v5.5

    I see the advantage of a table of contents that allows for the learner to see and then navigate (jump) to a specific section in a project.

    However I am unclear what role (if any) a table of contents would play if for example I have a project and I want to assure learners do not "jump" from slides/subjects and must take the project slide by slide.

    Apart show what is covered in the project and too much space on each slide vaulable, am I lack clear advantages / benefits by using a table of contents in these projects where I don't want users to have the right of skip?

  • Right align page numbers which is found to the left of the table of contents entries

    I posted a similar question a while ago I think that substances or Peter replied, but darn if I can find the thread. At that time, they provided a script that does a GREP search, find a sentence that starts with a number and its replacement by a tab. I still have the script, but for some reason, it does not properly with my new table of contents page layout. It must insert a tab on the left page number (page numbers are to the left table of contents entries) and force the numbers right aligned so that a single-digit right page number aligns with the right edge of a two-digit page number.

    Find: ^ (\d+)
    Change to the: \t$1

    What is happening in the new table of contents, this is the script is a figure and inserts a tab to the left of the page number. Page numbers are moving to the right, but they do not align right. They are further to the right, but they themselves numbers correspond to the left.

    I'm puzzled as to why the script does not work on this new layout. Now I use CS4 and it still works on the former route. Nothing terribly different about the new layout except that the column is much closer, and there are several columns threaded in the TOC instead of a long column and the chapter titles do not have page numbers (but all other entries have page numbers.)

    We should probably set the tabulator in your paragraph style: a tab aligned right for the numbers, followed by a tab stop that is aligned to the left to the text that follows this number. (I guess that there is a tab after the number.)

  • Plan the work that runs according to max date in the source to create table

    Hi all

    I am trying to create an automation in my sql. Basically, I have a table I do reporting and analysis on which is a subset of records from a source table. For the purposes of this example, I called the source table "src_table" and my table as the target table, "tgt_table." Essentially the source table gets updated with a value again months from date (founded order_dt) and I have a procedure I call when the source table is updated to load the value of the new month of records in my target table. So let say June 2012 data is loaded in the source table, I call my procedure that has a date parameter and enter June 2012 as the point of departure date so that it looks for new records in the source table from June 1, 2012 and load it into my target table. For variety reasons I won't get in, my goal in a position is not a view, there must be a stand alone table. The problem is that the source never table gets updated at the same speed interval... sometimes they will load a new months of data at the beginning of the following month, sometimes medium of the month... sometimes I have to wait a few months to get another month of data. So, whenever I get a email notification telling me another month of data is loaded in the source table, I have a windows batch file that runs my setting... I just have to change the start date (based on the order_dt column) and run it. I want to do is automate the process so that I did not yet do. What do I think creates a task that runs every day or even at the end of each month, this work has basically seized the date of maximum order of the source table and if the date of the order is greater than the maximum order date in my target table, it runs my procedure that loads the new month with a value of data in my target table. Thus, for example, my maximum order of my target table date is May 31, 2012. The work runs at a certain period of time and check the maximum date on the source table, if the maximum date is May 31 nothing happens... new data has not been loaded so does not perform the procedure. If the maximum date on the source table is June 30, 2012, the maximum date is greater than the maximum in my table target date so that the procedure runs. I need also the procedure to insert records into the table in the source where the order date in the source table is > = at the time of maximum order in the target table.

    In a Word, this is what I need but I'm not sure how to put in place. The procedure works fine... all I need is an interim procedure that runs as a scheduled task every x number of days and the date of maximum order check on the source table if it exceeds the maximum order on my table of target date it runs my procedure. My procedure is called "insert_new_orders" and when I run it I run it like:

    execute insert_new_orders('01-jun-2012');

    If anyone can help me with what would be great :-)

    Thank you

  • Sensitive HTML5 seems to be the construction of a table of contents with a "bc-#" at the end of the favorite locations leading to failure. Can this be avoided?

    RoboHelp11 generates a table of contents where the places of the xxxx.htm #aaa of the form have a bc '-' and a final number added.  In the same place that a link in the text does not.

    No doubt there are some settings that causes this.  How can I disable this addition?

    What is the fault you are experiencing?

    The #bc-# are added when a subject is used repeatedly in the table of contents. HR uses this fact to know what breadcrumbs that they must. To avoid this, use excerpts rather than add the topic to the table of contents, several times.

  • Page indent the problem with the table of contents entries...

    I have a few entries of table of contents running on more than one line. I would like the text to be indented from the establishment right indent/margin so that text does not as far as the Page numbers on the right margin of the text TOC block extend existing. I put a tab on the right so that the page numbers are tabulated on the right edge of the frame, but if I bring you the right margin with several (currently 5 mm) indenting, I can't have a tab stop to the page outside of the right margin.

    If I insert soft-return/new line tanks they wil get lost every time I have rebuild the table of contents (there will be a lot of it!)

    Any ideas, I'm sure it happens all the time for designers of the book.

    The same way you have a withdrawal of first line, on the left there is a final withdrawal of the straight line. You can set the right two inches (for example) withdrawal and removal of stretch to neutralize two thumbs, all on a single line will go completely to the right of the frame, and any point edge requiring line breaks will break two inches to the left of the right edge of the frame, while the last line will go to the right edge.

  • Problem with proper alignment of the character in my table of contents Styles

    Hi all!

    I'm working on my first book project and I have read so many threads here for the last hour, but I either just don't understand, or I have not found that I still had, so I apologize already where this question has been answered before...

    OK, so... I'm building my OCD and have set up corresponding TOC styles with paragraph styles used throughout the book.

    what I want is for the page number must appear before the entrance. so for the page number I put in place its own table of contents page number character style.

    NOW

    the page number appears left aligned. I checked the palette styles of character and here I can not put a tab for the page number appear stalled right...

    How can I get this page number to be propped right? and THEN, how can I specify the distance between the page number and the entry? There is "tab" mentioned in the Table of contents dialog box to specify the distance between the page number and the entry, but then I have to go manually every time something changes? that it is impossible? I saw in the palette paragraphy styles there is a section of tab... tried to grasp the tabs so the number seems to be right aligned and the distance to the entry, but nothing happened, then the number is glued directly to the entrance once the table of contents are generated...

    What's a sense?

    attach a screenshot in an attempt to clarify the question...

    hope you can help out me.

    Thank you very much in advance!

    see you soon

    I played with this for almost an hour, and as much as I know there is no way to adjust the alignment of the page numbers in the table of contents, suggesting off the beaten path.

    After testing a whole bunch of stuff that didn't work, I came up with the somewhat strange solution, but not impossible to simply change the table of contents manually to insert the required number of spaces listed in each entry. It takes the police that you use for numbers has Lining Figures, and you specify that, in the style, but a solution of script (and I don't know if it is possible) which are the best that I can offer. To set the distance of the number on the text, use a tab and set the position as part of the style.

  • change the colors of level table of contents

    RH8 HTML

    Hi all

    Ive had a request come out while changing the level colors in the table of contents for a webhelp project.

    AFAIK, you can define only a single color in the skin with HR settings, however I'm trying to track down the output file, where it is defined and perhaps add additional code to set the different colors of level.

    Does anyone know which file or piece of code is the control?

    Thank you

    Nick

    Hello

    You can use css to achieve this effect. You can modify the TocWriteClassStyle function in whthost.js or you can create a block of style/stylesheet.

    The normal color of the text is controlled by 'A' (the links are). It is the top level of the table of contents. All deeper levels are div with the class ".one". So ".we" do the second black TOC level. ".we .we" made the second red level. I tried this on a table of contents level 4 and I could give a different color to each level.

    There are two notes:

    -You can't repeat .we .we indefinitely. I thougt you could use four elements or so Max CSS is no longer valid and the styling breaks. Do not know why but...

    -When you use A .we, this color not only all the links of second level and third level links, etc. These links also meets the condition: a link in an item with classname 'child '. If you need to go to several levels (more than four), this method may not work for you.

    Take a bow

  • You order your topics TOC for the automatic creation of table of contents



    I recently inherited a help file. Our COMPUTER service complete updates of the application and generates content for the help file, I include in the file, generate the JAR file and transfer to programmers to integrate into the final product.

    However, when I generate it using the option "Printed material" in the single Source layouts, either in PDF or Word doc, it only builds a two page document with the name of literature printed on the first page, and 'no table entries of content not found' printed on the second.

    The file was imported from an older version of Robohelp, if that helps.

  • text too close to page number in the table of contents

    Most of the time I can take care of unattractive line breaks in the table of contents by putting in the nonbreaking spaces in a paragraph.

    However, sometimes I have a situation where a table of contents entry text is too close to the page number right. The text is so close to the page number as in some not case of presentation of points of the leader, or show only one or two points of leader.

    Writing and its adjustment page number on one line, then putting in the nonbreaking spaces won't solve the problem. I could put in a soft return (SHIFT-ENTER) in the table of contents entry to force a line break, but it is not effective because I have to put in the soft return manually every time the table of contents are updated.

    If someone has a tip on how to effectively manage this problem, I would like to know about it.

    Jay,

    Some time ago, someone posted a solution to make the line nice breaks in the index entries. It's setting values of the minimum and maximum word spacing in the paragraph Designer. The values validated it did not worked for me, so I played a little with it and use the following syntax:

    In the paragraph format for table of contents entry, set the maximum word spacing of 325% and oral minimum spacing to 275% and the optimal spacing to 100%. Note the fact that the optimum is NOT between the minimum and maximum values. I don't know the algorithm that Frame uses to decide where the line break, but I'm guessing he first decides to break the line to fill the max and min requires, breaks the line, but changes the spacing back 100%, which is what you want then, in other words, we don't want large spaces.

    The causes of values above a line break about an inch or two to the right margin. If you want to close, try 225 percent and 175 percent. I found that over these two issues of line breaks occur further from the right margin.

    This method does not have to enter the manual line breaks and gives a nice line break, even for those rows that could fit on a single line.

    Good luck

  • Generic procedure to load the data from the source to the table target

    Hi all

    I want to create a generic procedure to load data of X number of the source table to X number of the target table.

    such as:

    Source1-> Target1

    Source2-> Target2

    -> Target3 Source3

    Each target table has the same structure as the source table.

    The indexes are same as well. Constraint are not predefined in the source or target tables.there is no involved in loading the data from the business logic.

    It would simply add.

    This procedure will be scheduled during off hours and probably only once in a month.

    I created a procedure that does this, and not like:

    (1) make a contribution to the procedure as Source and target table.

    (2) find the index in the target table.

    (3) get the metadata of the target table indexes and pick up.

    (4) delete the index above.

    (5) load the data from the source to the target (Append).

    (6) Re-create the indexes on the target table by using the collection of meta data.

    (7) delete the records in the source table.
