Table of contents not applying style does not correctly

I have an InDesign document of basic test with a "paragraph A Style" applied to a few main headings in the document. I created a "paragraph Style B" separate for the TOC to represent instances of a paragraph Style A. Style is set in 8pt font. Style B is set to 14pt font. When I place the Table of contents in the dialog box, I chose the Style A appear as Style B, but when I actually put the table of contents, it always appears in A Style. Any ideas as to why?

InDesign CS5 version 7.0

Windows XP SP3

Same problem on two different computers (with the same configuration as shown above)

You might also look to see if you apply a character style to the text.

  • Automated Table of contents using incorrect styles

    Hello

    I got the InDesign to generate the table of contents for me based on the styles that I created. In most cases, this works very well except for a few cases where some of the generated elements have the applied incorrect character style.

    For example, I have a paragraph called Sub header style. In the settings Table of contents window, I have subheader put in place for the TOC entry under heading style. Each time the Sub header entry appears, it theoretically should use the table of contents under heading style in the table of contents. Unfortunately, for reasons I cannot quite understand, this isn't happening. Most of the entries under the header appear correctly, using the Sub TOC header, but some of them are filling in the table of contents with adaptations of the character style that have been used in the body.

    Does anyone know a way around this? If my example was not clear enough, let me know what I need to study in detail, and I'll do it.

    Dr Mitchell says:

    some of them are filling in the table of contents with adaptations of the character style that have been used in the body.

    It is a normal behavior. Local Overides and character styles are preserved when points are awarded to a new style. You can avoid this by using nested styles or styles built GREP style intothe defintion to apply special formatting (because they are part of the definition of paragraph style that they are not substitutions and will not be kept), or if this is not possible, you can make a topic non-printable to use instead and apply the paragraph style and then make a copy of the style and give a new name (just the base on the other model and nothing else than the name change) and apply it to one with character style replacements, so it does not appear in the table of contents.

  • Table of contents using a style/section of the master page

    I'm at the top of my head I think... and probably incorrectly to the top of my document.  I hope I can quickly explain where I am:

    Question 1

    I'd like a Table of contents to use 10 section headers that appear throughout my document.  Here's how I set up:

    • In the master page, a place for the header of section and it gives a paragraph style.
    • Then, throughout the document, I used the "numbering and section options" start each new section and give this article is the unique name.

    When I went to generate the Table of contents, I've specified using this particular paragraph style that I used for the section headers, but nothing appears (except for the title, I asked for the General table of contents).  It's as if this isn't to find the sections - or this style (which applies only to the master page).

    Where am I wrong?

    Question 2

    I wish that my Table of contents, not numbered.  How do I do that?

    Shanell

    I don't know that you understood my post. I was able to do exactly what you did - create a master page with a frame and the section marker character (indicating "section" on the master page) and then add the actual text of the marker in the numbering and section options. The text appears on the page of live document.

    When I tried to do a table of contents, text was not resumed UNTIL I selected and carried this master frame on the page of the document (Ctrl + Shift + click on Windows or Cmd + Shift + click on Mac on the image that you want to replace). After substitution, the text appeared as scheduled in the table of contents.

    You're right about the number of page for this page. You can use another master without a page number, or you can cancel and delete the master page number frame. I assume that you will need to use a different master for the first page and pages in any section to avoid having the marker appear on all pages, or you can replace only the first page so that you don't repeat entries in the table of contents for each page of each section.  If you use the marker as a running header Section, you can learn more about Variables header running in the help files in place. In many ways, the use of a variable can be simpler and more direct.

  • Tables of contents, not the substitution of character styles applied in chapters

    My table of contents uses not the style of input I select words in the paragraphs that have styles of characters that are applied in the chapter, so some letters, more precisely the parameters, displayed in green, which is well in the chapter but not in the table of contents. I can manually fix this in the table of contents by changing the character to any style after the table of contents was generated, but I don't want to do that. I think it has to happen automatically.

    This should do it:

    (?<=\()[\w, \w)]*(?="">

    It searches the text in parentheses without selecting them.

  • Table of content not applying paragraph styles do not

    Hello

    Intensely frustrated, but assuming that I have do just something stupid I can't understand.  I use CS4.

    Try to make a table of contents.  Everything will import correctly in the table of contents - I because of paragraph styles to the different levels, I've wanted to, etc., including some of the hidden layers.  All these import correctly.

    I did the paragraph styles for the real KNOCK out and filled in the box for each to apply to the specifc level.  The basic indentation formatting etc. I am applying work, but features and the font size will not change.

    When I look at each paragraph style, everything entered in the way that I want it to be (that is, text formatting, etc.).  I can go to my OCD manually and click on the section of text and apply the style to the paragraph I want and apply the recesses, etc., but the formatting of the text is not.  I have to go to character styles to make it work.

    If I go into another section of my document, apply that same paragraph text style, then all (characteristics of fonts & renfonçait changes etc.).

    Looks like you can have styles of characters applied to text in the document itself, and these character styles are preserved. Local formatting and character styles applied in the paragraphs are retained when you make the table of contents.

    Many users doesn't seem to understand the distinction between character and paragraph styles, too and using character styles incorrectly. I'm not saying that it's true for you, necessarily, but you should undersand this character styles are used to change the font attributes for bit isolated from the text in a paragraph. The basis for the type specification is part of the paragraph style, and there should be no reason to apply a style of character with the exception of special cases - some words or characters - in the paragraph. Text most will have no style applied character.

  • Table of contents: not positioned wrong page numbers

    When I create my "list of Figures" (A Table of contents item type) I get ugly results such as (p83 and p84):

    Screen Shot 2014-02-05 at 5 February 14.21.49.png

    and (p105)

    Screen Shot 2014-02-05 at 5 February 14.22.13.png

    There is not always a dashed line and page numbers are not always end on the right. Is there a way I can influence it?

    I found a solution, less elegant, but it seemed to work in my little test. Add a GREP style to your paragraph to add a character without pause style tab and the number. (This corrects the independent left-aligned numbers).

    Then do a search and repalce to add a space before the tabs. The result is far from ideal, because it leaves a space between the text and the leader, but it seems to solve the problems of end of line too tight.

  • Table of contents not be created properly

    The table of contents does not correctly render levels.

    My second level is made before the first. Why this might be happening?

    I forgot something? If this isn't a bug... then I'm completely preplexed.

    I created TOC of hundreds of times and I've never run into this issue.

    Popular ideas.

    Levels does not actually get used to sort the table of contents, unless you sort alphabetically. If sorting by page, the usual cause of things ouot of order is implemented. ID search for images containing paragraphs to be included from the upper left, then down, then up opt to move to the right and down again once, so a framework that is more to the left, even if low on the page, is first.

  • Table of contents not showing is not on DVD

    I need to burn a DVD with table of contents. For some reason when I test the DVD on my player, there is no content/menu. I came to chapter markers, so I don't know why they are not transferred to disk. Help, please!

    What do you get when you insert the DVD? Is - that the video starts to play automatically instead of the menu?

    Note: you can easily avoid wasting disks DVD sharing on your hard disk instead. This creates a disk image, you can ride as if it were a real DVD by double-clicking it in the Finder.

    In this way, you can test the result in your Mac using a DVD player (even in a Mac without and real DVD player) and you can make adjustments and re-export as many times as necessary. When you are ready, use the Finder to burn multiple copies of the DVD that you want - in El Capitan, just control - click on the disk image file and select burn. [In previous versions of Mac OS X, you should use disk utility to burn DVD discs]

  • Table of contents of decorative Style - extend outward

    Hi all

    I have a class in which I am using the Table of contents (TOC). I try to maintain the maximum screen real estate and have chosen the style of layering (so that the user can show/hide the TOC using the buttons in the top left and bottom right of the screen).

    When appears in the Table of contents, it expands on the content of the slide. Is there a widget or another way to force the Table of contents to expand outwards, and not cover the content of slide?

    I know that I can partially achieve my goal by choosing the distinct style. However, I still want to give to the learner the possibility to show/hide the table of contents. It is difficult for me to say, the resolution of the project decreases when the table of contents with the distinct style are used?

    Version: Captivate 5.5

    Thanks for your time and your answers.

    When you use the table of contents separate the total width of the project is increased to account for the width of the table of contents.

    There is no option to drag or move the table of contents, unless you use Overlay OCD.

    As the space allocated to the screen for a separate table of contents would be empty anyway, you might as well get the advantage of having the table of contents is available at all times.

    I generally use Overlay OCD because I need the extra screen real estate.  But a separate table of contents are very desirable, especially for learners who are not all in computer science.

  • Tables displays do not correctly in Internet Explorer.

    Hi, I need a little help. I tried to solve this problem with a contact form that I put in place in the tables. I keep having problems with internet explorer, troubleshooting in general. The site is in sight at the moment, but I have no idea how fix the table line up side by side. It seems as if she doesn't have a table on IE but works perfectly well in Firefox and Chrome. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Cell.Contents not correctly resolve the empty strings if in excess... Is this a Bug or me?

    Greetings, Folks.

    It's driving me crazy. I can reproduce the problem over and over again. I'm missing a reason why cell.contents would be assessed differently in the case of condition in excess than no? I don't understand...

    Here is the scenario of. CS6, Win7, VB.Net (but the logic is simple so stay with me...).

    Object in question is a line of 3 cells with values in the respective cells: text, double value, double the value.

    Here's the problem. (gitc = 1 in all these test cases)

    If Not HasValue (curRow.Cells(gitc + 1). Content) then

    Here's the simple function called by the line above:

    Private Function HasValue (value as object( ) As Boolean

       If IsDBNull (value) OrElse value = "" Then Return Fake Else Return True

    End Function

    That is the problem. The code works as expected, provided that the referenced line is not in a State in excess, the object is a text value, and of two values, where the function returns an appropriate assessment. But if the line is in a State in excess, the object resolves in three empty strings ("" ") and as a result, the function returns the wrong assessment.

    Here the rub. If I lie down (or shorten) the column that puts a DIFFERENT line in the place in excess, the same result occurs to this different line, so I know that's not the values.

    Sorry for the long explanation, but I felt that it is important to give as much information as possible when you ask for help.

    Thank you very much for any help and/or an overview.

    TT

    Ah, I am a JavaScripter, but the Council is good even if the syntax is incorrect.

    The fact is that, if the cell is in excess and then its content is indeed empty. What is not empty is the subject of the text in the cell. You probably should look into it. In JavaScript is:

    myCell.texts [0] .silence

    Let me say at the outset, I know that the page is old (created in Front Page) he uses tables for layout instead of CSS. I hope to update soon, but for now I need a fix to get the pages work correctly.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you
    Becky

    Hello

    In the CSS of the USBC, remove this element:

    TD {}
    do-family: Arial, without serif.
    float: right;
    }

    Take care
    Tim

  • Lists numbered in the heading styles do not appear in the table of contents

    Hello world

    I used lists numbered as part of the style definition for the 4 levels of headings, for example.

    Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION

    1.1

    1.2

    1.3

    1.4

    1.4.1

    1.4.2

    one.

    b.

    c.

    d.

    When I create the table of contents, however, the numbering does not appear.

    Anyone know why this happens and if there is a workaround?

    Appreciate any advice.

    1. Go to set the styles in the menu layout, table of contents
    2. In the diolog: more Options
    3. In the paragraphs numbered section: select "Include full paragraph.
    4. Save the Style and use.
  • RoboHelp 2015 (12.0.2.384): The search returns topics do not are included in the table of contents

    ENVIRONMENT: Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 8.00 GB of RAM, 64 - bit OS, Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Acrobat Reader DC 2015.017.20050

    DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT:

    • A single RoboHelp HTML project with three exits. One of the outputs is a 'validation' reference that has its own Table of contents.
    • Validation reference Table of contents contains a subset of the subjects in the main help system. For example, the help system main table of contents contains a folder named 'Administration '. This folder is not in the table of contents of reference for Validation.
    • The reference of Validation is displayed on a public web site. Therefore, we applied the tag "Non_public_info" contained in the topics shared that we do not want to appear on the public website.
    • WebHelp parameters are:
      • Validation reference TOC
      • No map file, no sequence to browse
      • Conditional compilation expression: NOT_Non_public_info_AND_NOT_StyleGuidelines_AND_NOT_TRP (we keep our Style rules in the project to facilitate access during development. TRP content must be rejected because it was not released.)
      • Exclude non referenced topics of output is selected.
      • Search options. Only 'Show Total number of search results' and 'View AND search Option in outputs' are selected.
    • After generating the WebHelp, we remove the files that we don't want (RoboHelp generates empty folders, even if the files are not in the table of contents.)

    PROBLEM: A search in the help of Validation reference reveals the topics that we think should not be included because the subjects themselves are not in the table of contents of Validation reference. For example, the section "Data quality analysis" is in the main table of contents help, but not in the table of contents of reference for Validation. Therefore, we do not expect the topic appears in the search results pane at all. But he does. When the user clicks on the subject, the "Resource not found" message appears.

    Nothing shows the topic Style_Guidelines because the StyleGuidelines label conditional construction applies to the entire folder and the "Style guidelines" book in the main table of contents. (Same thing for the TRP folder).

    QUESTION: Why are topics which are not in the table of contents and whose records are not in the project at all appearing in the WebHelp during a search? We need to rewrite the expression of conditional compilation or establish conditions differently. We assume not have topics in the table of contents, not including the topics not referenced in the output, and remove empty folders would be the way to go. Any help is welcome!

    Thank you very much.

    The table of contents does not control what ends up in the output for output online. All content tagged and tagged content which is not excluded by the expression of construction will be included. The parameter 'Exclude topics not referenced output' more exclude all subjects which are not in the table of contents AND are not related to any topic which is included in the output.

    On the other hand, for the print output the table of contents control which is found in the output. I think that it will fire a lot of people.

    If you generate the help and that you do not remove the unwanted files, do you still have the error? If this isn't the case, you know that the topic is referenced somewhere in the content of the reference of the Validation.

    Here is the help of RH11. I can't imagine it would have changed, but you could do a search to verify a second time for RH2015.

    Exclude output not referenced topics

    Select this option to exclude any topic that exists in the project, but is not the default theme in page layout or is not referenced table of selected contents, index or sequence to browse, or any referenced subject.

    Note: RoboHelp shows the topics not referenced that are excluded from the output in the output view module.
