I am a relative beginner in that I have learned Publisher from scratch and never used DTP apps before. Fingers crossed I am doing fine. I have been building a project for about a year now and am delighted with results. I think this is an amazing app. But obviously I do misunderstand new stuff sometimes so I am guessing that I am missing something I need to be doing here. I am having problems with the Index panel. I have just started adding an index to the end of a large document. I have set some index markers in the text and created a page with a text frame for the index. The Index panel shows the marked items in a list below it and clicking the Insert Index button creates an index in my selected text frame. It works perfectly! Except ....... if I modify the marker list by adding and/or removing markers then select the index text frame and click the Update button in the Index panel, nothing happens. I have tried everything I can think of but I cannot get my index to update. I have a workaround, which is to select everything in the existing index and delete it, then click Insert Index and it creates a new index with all the changes. Obviously this less than ideal, but I haven't been able to find any way of getting the Update button to work. Suggestions anyone please?

The Update button in the Index studio doesn't work. Insert some index marks Insert index Add another index mark Click Update - nothing happens Fortunately this is easy to workaround, just delete the index and add it and it will be updated. But confusing for newbies. Was discussed in this other forum thread.

Just wondering if there's a timeline for an expected fix to the index "update" feature in the index panel? The work around is to delete the index and reinsert. But I'm working on a book index right now and clicking "update" would be so much less time consuming after making slight adjustments or additions to the list. It's already an option, all I need is the option to use it. Other than that, no complaints. I think you've done pretty well here in creating an alternative to spending a small fortune elsewhere.
