In the table of content design

Can anyone help please?

I have a problem with the creation of table of contents and change the order of the paragraph styles. For example, in the document, I have the title and the author defined as style. I want the author to come first, followed by the title with a page number in the table of contents. I get almost work, but page numbers are disabled.

Thank you

In the table of contents, you have two options for the order, pages or alphabetical order. If you use the command page, ID goes to the things on the list in the order that he finds them on the page, and he starts the search in the upper left corner and works down before moving to the right.

You may be able to solve your problem ensuring that the name of the author is in a framework that extends to the left that part of the chapter title. A screenshot of the page in question would be a big help, with the contours of the block and the display invisible characters. Use the camera icon on the edit page of the Web site to integrate the image.

  • 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.

    Thank you for your help

    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.

  • Why the names of my chapters are not displayed in the table of contents?

    Hello. I use Indesign & DPS simple editing to make an application. In Indesign, I created several different documents that I used to make items that I put together in a Folio.  I saw it using the tool preview Adobe & on the iPad using Adobe Content Viewer. When I select the button table of contents I see thumbnail screenshots of the first page of each chapter, but no text chapter name.  For each of the documents that I used to make items that I named them after the chapter they represent, which is what I thought each chapter name defined.

    The strange thing is that before I did a couple of test folios and they do not have the name of chapter text. So what can I do to display the chapter name in the table of contents?

    Also, is there a way to change change the thumbnail used by the table of contents?

    Thank you

    The answer to both questions is in the Article Properties dialog box. Select the item in the Folio Builder Panel and choose Properties from the context menu. Specify the name of the chapter of "Title" - which is probably empty now. (There is a difference between an article name and a title of the article. The name is used for internal purposes, such as the binding, and the title appears in the application).

    At the bottom of this dialog box, you see a preview of the Table of contents. Click the folder icon and specify a PNG of 70 x 70 that you design.

  • Generate the table of contents with chapter markers?

    It has been a while since I had to install and create a table of contents for a long document of single file, but I'm sure that I created TOCs in this way in the past. Then, why the text in the Section markers will appear in the table of contents? It is even possible to generate a table of contents that contains text of article marker?

    I use InDesign CS5 in Windows. I have a file single document I'm trying to generate a table of contents for. I designed a 16-page manual in an inDesign file that includes a cover page, table of contents page and seven "chapters."

    I created a separate section for each 'chapter' and used Chapter markers in the top of the page master for chapter names. It's something I did in the past of syntactically long documents containing several chapters.

    I put the first page of each 'chapter' as a new Section on the Pages panel. In numbering and Section Options for each page, I checked the Section getting started, Automatic Page numbering, the Style of Page numbering: 1,2,3,4... and in Section marker: I put the name of 'chapter' in the text box.

    InDesign_Pages_NumberingSectionOptions.jpg

    I've set up paragraph and character Styles and has used throughout my document. When I put in place the table of contents I created everything correctly, including a heading style that I used for all the sub lines in my file and my style of Section marker for chapter names.

    InDesign_TOC.jpg

    When I insert the table of contents, generate headers sub with their page numbers, but the titles of the chapters which are chapter markers do not generate. Am I missing something or is it still possible to enter the text of chapter markers in a table of contents? I'm sure that he's worked in the past. Can anyone offer a solution for this?

    Thank you

    Looks like the markers section present only in the table of contents if they are on a document page. Try manually to the substitution of the frame.

  • 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

  • How can I display the table of contents for the iPod Touch to 6

    When I opened first of all iPod Touch Users' Guide, I used the table of contents (TOC) to locate and access sections in the manual. But, after looking through the manual for awhile, I tried to return to the table of contents, but it wasn't there! I have tried various things to see if the table of contents are being hidden, or if in some way, it has been deleted. Anyone can shed light on this mysterious event?

  • 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

    Something that I did not mention what may be important - paragraph styles are two styles of personalized paragraph that I created for this document.

  • 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.

  • filter does not work in the table of contents of VMS 2.2

    I created a filter rule in the table of contents to remove some false positives on an ids sensor, the event still shows upwards, what should I check to solve the problem?

    You can change the filter on the sensor through CLI or IDM.

    Connect to your sensor via its C & C interface with your browser to this address "https://".

    After logging in, click 'Configuration'-> 'Detection engine'-> 'event filters ".

    This should bring up a list to update your filters. From this location, you can change or add a filter.

  • How to choose half of a title to appear as title 1 in the Table of contents?

    I am creating a document containing several job descriptions and want to have a hyperlink in a Table of contents description of each individual work. The way securities are in the format looks like this: "profile Description: President. The only part of the title I want to appear in the Table of contents is '' President.

I know that I could drop the word 'Président' to another line, but it's not the look I want.

    Ok. I assume that you do this in Word?
    If so, then the word is part of office (for which there are specific forums on this site) and no windows.
    Click on the Forums link at the top of this window, choose the desktop, and then select the version of Office you are using and choose the word.

  • Is it possible to customize the sensitive presentation - sequence of the table of contents, Index, tabs filter?

    Hello

    I use RoboHelp 2015 and reactive production layout, I need to rearrange these tabs. I want the tab of filtering of dynamic content to be displayed before the table of contents.

    Is it possible to re - sequence tab filters before tab table of contents by making some backend work in CSS or code?

    forum post.png

    Or the other way improved - if we select filters say - sales, then sales related subjects should be displayed (rather extended below - just like the expansion of text).

    Is it possible to customize the sensitive provision in this way?

    It is possible through the HTML code. In Notepad, open the file "Topic.slp". On line 35, you will see a list of links:
