Table of contents links keep current zoom level do not zoom to full page

When Indesign creates tables of contents, they automatically connect the paragraphs, links point to, so that in an interactive PDF, clicks and prods take the user to this page. Large.

Is what is not so great that hypertext links / references / jump-links / whatever born behind the scenes within the table of contents seem to be:

  1. .. .be is automatically set to reset the zoom to width full page
  2. .. .not be changed somehow

Normal cross references keep the level of zoom that the user chose and normal hyperlinks that point to a page in the document have a range of settings on this change of zoom level (if any) must be imposed on the user, which can be set to "inherit zoom".

How can I set up a table of contents bothering users by resetting their chosen artitrary default zoom level when using the interactive table of content?

I really hope that I don't have a gap table of content feature Indesign and create all the cross-references manually.

(edited) So it turns out that you can "expand" a table of contents by copying and pasting - it fills the hyperlinks with links that can be edited (as above), but the auto-update breaks - there are a table of contents, they are just one block from text full of links. (I got different copies mixed up when I thought that the framework that the editable links was also-automatic update)

Aging out of the links is a red herring, just something to do with the fact that they were on a master page.

This means that a possible OCD workflow is:

  • Create a table of contents on the pasteboard somewhere.
  • Before finalizing the document, to update the table of contents and alt-do drag the table of contents 'live' creates an editable of 'dead' copy in a suitable place in the document
  • Change the properties of the links links in the 'dead' copy (remember that you can select several hyperlinks at once by holding down the SHIFT key and change things like the Zoom all at once with the hyperlink Options setting from the context menu of hyperlinks).

Then if you make further changes to the document later, remove the copy dead, update and re - copy the live original and redo the changes to the new copy

This isn't a bad way - it adds just on the work of a minute, each time you export a PDF file (delete and update TOC, alt drag, shift-select the new batch of.) XXXX links at the bottom of the hyperlinks Panel, > hyperlink, Zoom setting Options > Inherit Zoom, actually).

Otherwise, you may build manually to a table of contents using cross references, if you want the links to the exact position on the page, not just the top of the appropriate page.

  • Table of contents: linking the titles and page numbers

    Hi all

    In my paper, I created a table of contents.

    Like most books, I want to link titles and paragraphs to their pages by a dotted or dashed, just like that:

    Title - P2

    subtitle - P3

    etc...

    I also use these links in checklists to connect the left side of the list to the right side.

    And this isn't something wrong: this faclity Visual really helps you recognize what's on poles on the right with the correct item on the left.

    Is there a way or a function in Pages to automatically create these links instead of typing for each item in the Table of contents (which can be very long, little time)?

    Thanks for your time.

    Lopez.

    With your table of contents is generated, click each item in the table of contents (for example, title, subtitle, title 1, etc.) so that it appears highlighted. Your right in v5.6.2 Pages panel will show the Table of contents and a text label.

    Further down in the text tab, there will be an area of tabs. If it is not expanded, click the word ▸ tabs. Click any selector in the column Leader and the choice of your choice for your boss to fill. There is no provision to set a color of head. Here is an example:

    Every time that I generate a project one or several of the toc links do not expand when you click on it.

    Links that do not work change randomly.

    Aboslutely no idea why this is happening. All of them have worked at one time or another but often not completely.

    I spent the last two days to generate and regenerate a project with trailer related word documents and each time the same problem reoccurs.

    Any ideas how to solve this problem?

    No show errors in the error list

    I was thinking about Linked documents such as file > link, but I see you mean URL in your table of contents.

    I can't easily think a reason for their break randomly. Try to delete the PCD files for projects and then regenerate.

  • Table of contents indented to a title that should not be indented

    Hi, Gang!

    I created a table of contents of a book and the entries of table of contents for the two pages of separation are indented, when they shouldn't be. The style of table of contents for the separator page header has no indentation and entering the reference TOC page seems correct. To make the things unknown, two entries are indented different amounts in the table of contents.

    Here is a screenshot that shows 1) the first entry in the table of contents (far back), 2) the second entry in the TOC (less indented, but always indented) and 3) style of separator on the referring page page.

    I'm puzzled.

    Does anyone have ideas why this withdrawal could happen?

    Thank you very much!

    Rocky,

    OR Ctrl-click on the text box and uncheck the BOX allow for sideheads. For reasons unknown to me, Framemaker sometimes turns this when you create a new table of contents or an Index.

  • Table of contents links merged Cause subjects to open in a new window

    Hi all

    I have a master .chm file and several .chm files merged with it. RH5/6 these were works well when I clicked on their links TOC; they open properly as expected in the Viewer as well as the main help file. Now, after installing RH7 yesterday and using to compile my master file, if I click on one of the merged TOC links, the subproject opens inside is clean.

    Suggestions on how to solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    Jared

    I managed to fix it by removing and add in the projects merged in the master TOC. In fact, which fixed another problem I had with browse sequences. Colum will be happy.

    I would START by checking if your IE8 has all its flaws. Any time we're not able to open links in emails, the Internet Explorer problem, the majority of the time.

    Start button > Default programs > Set Your Default programs > left side, select Internet Explorer...
    He said "this program has all its defaults"?
    If not, click on choose by default for this program > tick on each entry in the list > save

    See if that solves all the problems you have.

    P.S. Check with your shipper, see if your sender uses Microsoft Outlook. If so, ask your sender to go to the Format of the mail and select HTML.

  • Is Acrobat Pro just for us. We have an employee handbook that needs editing. A part is current pdf, some of an earlier version. You want to get all in a manual, the table of contents automatically adjust and links to specific pages of the table of content

    Is Acrobat Pro just for us. We have an employee handbook that needs editing. A part is current pdf, some of an earlier version. You want to get all in a manual, the table of contents automatically adjust and links to specific pages of the table of contents.

    Acrobat Pro is certainly not the right tool for editing. You want to change the manual using the source - MS Word files for example. Once you have the full changes including OCD work as you want, Acrobat Pro is the tool to convert the source document to PDF format, and ensure the accessibility requirements of 508 - and preferably ISO 14289 (PDF/UA) - are met.

  • How can I exclude a level for the table of contents, but this amount as a bookmark?

    I know how to exclude a level for the table of contents (or rather include only levels I want to be included) and also how to create bookmarks from the table of contents entries, but how can I exclude a level for the table of contents, but always include it as a bookmark?

    Make 2 toc styles. One for the entries in the Bookmarks panel, you can generate a table of contents on the side of any page, and you must score in its definition to create bookmarks and other things that you use to build the table of contents for the visible part of your document to print. This should have unchecked the option create a bookmark in its definition.

  • Topics by opening the first occurrence in the table of contents

    Background: I created HTML5 Responsive help using HR 2015 for a web application. I organized the Hep role, then pages with these roles, users can access, and then by the tasks users can perform on this page. In many cases, a subject is listed under multiple roles and reuse and efficiency, I just dragged the same theme in the list of the topic in the table of contents as appropriate.

    I also used the text conditionalized on table of contents by role level. Using the example below, I have conditions for physician, nurse, and Patient, but I don't think that this is part of the issue well. Conditionalized roles were created for filtering purposes.

    Question: I have the overview topics that include hyperlinks to headings in red in the example below for each role. When a user clicks the hyperlink in this topic of presentation, he brings them to the FIRST occurrence of this topic in the table of contents, not the link that is associated with their role. When a user with the role of the Patient is in the topic view of their role and click the hyperlink 'Research for patients', help opens on this subject, but the "Searching for patients" in the topic role of physician in the table of contents on the left is highlighted.  Not a show-stopper, but it is confusing for users.

    Also, we had originally planned to use the filter feature to filter role help topics. When I filter to view only a specific role (nurse) and do the steps above, by clicking on the Preview 'Search for patients' hyperlink opens but there is no highlighting in the table of contents because this first occurrence is hidden in all the subjects physician.

    Note: This problem does not occur when I generate the content as WebHelp.

    What I want to do: When the nurse click on the hyperlink for 'Research for patients' of their overview topic, researching topic of patients is open and the search for patients is highlighted in the table of contents under the nurse, not the first occurrence (doctor).

    Questions: Is this a bug or is it repairable? And is it possible to fix it without creating the specific role of topics such as finding doctors for Patients, nursing research for Patients and so forth? I tried to delete the table of contents and start again, but the problem persists.

    Here is an example:

    Doctor

    Patient portal page

    Overview (contains links to sections below - view patient demograhic data, looking for patients, to renew orders)

    Display of the demographics of the patients

    Looking for patients

    Renewal of prescriptions

    Nurse

    Patient portal page

    Overview (contains links to sections below)

    Display of the demographics of the patients

    Looking for patients

    Display of orders

    Patient

    Patient portal page

    Overview (contains links to sections below)

    Update your demographic data

    Display of your prescrpitions

    My opinion would be that this is the expected behavior. My theory is that there is no information within the syntax of hyperlinks. A hypertext link is encoded such that when you click on it, you are taken to the landing page, as if sending the message "find the page named and post it by the specified parameters. What is happening is that the hyperlink goes to the first instance of the HTML page in your table of contents (.hhc file). There is no intelligence, he doesn't "know" that you are in the doctor or the nurse section - section he knows only that the page specified in the table of contents is listed in the file and thus, it only takes you there. The syntax of hyperlinks don't "know" where you are in the help system.

    I just also wanted to report the fault of strike in the Patient section, look a your orders of your example, assuming that you have copied and pasted into this thread.

  • Incorrect time in the table of contents

    I have a 8 s sliding for more than a minute long. After mounting, the TOC always shows the time 01:26 and does not update. Saved as a new file, no change.

    Clues?

    I have tried resetting the table of contents, but duration of slides is adapted in real time, no reset necessary.

    Type securities, may I offer a tip? Label the slides instead of typing the slide titles in the table of contents. For a higher level, group slides, labeling the Group and this will appear as a top level heading in the table of contents. This has not only the advantage that resetting the table of contents will keep these labels, but they are also very useful in other cases, some examples:

    • If you want to use the jump to the slide, you can choose the label of the slide instead of the number
    • The advanced interaction, in the branching view, you'll see labels for slides instead of numbers
    • You can reduce the groups in the film strip
    • You can apply a master slide to a group

  • Bars, tables of contents and ramifications

    I create my first module branching Captivate 8 and I have a few questions...

    1. Is it possible to have separate tables of contents for each branch?
    2. Is there a way to disable the reading and TOC bar on some pages only?

    Thanks in advance.


    Michael

    If you want a separate table of contents, you will need to create it yourself, which is not possible with the normal TOC of Captivate. You can hide slides in the TOC, you can group slides and even build on several levels, but that's all.

    Yes, you can lock the table of contents, there is already a variable system that you think still has the command Lock table of contents in the list. It is not possible to lock or disable the PlayBar, you can hide it on some slides. Use the event to enter the slide, both for the blocking of OCD or hide PlayBar... You can also hide the table of contents if you want, but this is only possible if the table of contents are overlaid.

  • Table of contents order

    I'm working on a Table of contents of a training manual, and I'm a little confused on how to manage the order of the items in my table of contents.

    In my page, I have two styles of different paragraph I want to show in the table of contents - the subheader (section headings), and the Sub Headers (definitions). There are two under headings on the page and 12 Sub-Sub-Headers (all of which are anchored text boxes because I wanted them on the same line as the definitions). Here is the order in which they appear:

    Screen Shot 2016-07-08 at 9.49.51 AM.png

    When I update the Table of contents, InDesign puts sub two headings at the top of this page and the all following definitions. I would have preferred that the various definitions appear under the secondary heading in the table of contents, as they appear in the actual page.

    Screen Shot 2016-07-08 at 9.50.09 AM.png

    Is it possible that I can have in the actual page order rather than having the two are senior level automatically fill on top? Here are my parameters, in which case it is useful. I'm on a Mac of InDesign CC version.

  • How we can print the page numbers for the shape of the TABLE OF CONTENTS when her excluded from the form page count?

    Hi Experts,

    We have the TABLE OF CONTENTS, followed by 100 forms totally 215 pages.

    We checked in the exclusion of the option of number of form page SUMMARY form at the level of the group.

    Followed forms of TABLE OF CONTENTS forms all use FORMSETPAGENUM rule at the bottom of page.

    the first form followed by TABLE OF CONTENTS form the number starts page 1 of 215 and the last form closes at 215 215.

    Now, I want to print the Page number of SUMMARY form only.

    How can do us?  Any thoughts?

    Kind regards

    RAMAN C

    Hello Raman,

    I guess that you included "Exclude the number of pages" option in the form of table of content (TOC).

    There is a limitation in the studio. The functions of page number (PAGE NUM OF FORM / FORMSET PAGE OF NUM) will be ineffective when we choose the option "Exclude the number of pages" in the form of table of contents. Therefore, you was not able to print many pages of form as a table of contents.

    The only way to print the number of pages is to deselect the option "exclude the number of pages. Then you can print the number of pages in the table of contents in the form of table of contents normally. However, this number of pages in the table of contents will add to the Total number of pages form set. The number of pages all forms can be controlled by Postransdal using the script [FORMSET PAGE NUM = TotalPages() - 1]

    Kind regards

  • Is there a way to "force" a title that is not screw up the Table of contents?

    I used SHIFT + ENTER to force the rest of the topic on the next line, but it screws to the top of the table of contents.

    Suggestions?

    Do not use hard returns. Anchor a block of empty anchor image in this position, running in Para, of equivalent right height to 3 lines of text in title.

    Put a non-breaking space between Tuesday and the morning, to keep them on the same line (Ctrl + SPACEBAR).

    Take the left edge of the AF with the graphical tool and drag it to squeeze the heading to the left until it sinks you want to appear on the page to the left. Table of contents entry will always be a single line.

    I can think of other ways to do this, but frame RRI technique is by far the easier and more understandable for the future stewards of document.
