No table of contents is created

[draupnir]

Hello, 

I have two problems in Publisher 1.10.1 – The first is about TOC:

I tried it under macOS 10.15.7, macOS 11.5.2 and Windows 10 with Publisher 1.10.1 and got no directory at all. 
(A) Put a line with the image description under each image. As a paragraph format, I christened it »Bildzeile-Unterschrift«.
(B) Call up "View > Studio > Table of Contents".
(C) Create a new, empty page at the end of the document and click in the text frame. Then, in the "Table of Contents" panel, click on "Create Table of Contents" at the top left.
(D) The directory should then appear on the new page. I only get an error message.
(E) In order for the Publisher to know which paragraph format is to be displayed in the list, the »Bildzeile-Unterschrift« must be clicked.

GERMAN: 
Ich habe es unter macOS 10.15.7, macOS 11.5.2 und Windows 10 mit Publisher 1.10.1 probiert und gar kein Verzeichnis bekommen. 
(A) Setze unter jedes Bild eine Zeile mit der Bildbeschreibung. Als Absatzformat habe ich es als »Bildzeile-Unterschrift« getauft.
(B) Rufe »Ansicht > Studio > Inhaltsverzeichnis« auf.
(C) Erstelle am Ende des Dokuments eine neue, leere Seite und klicke in den Textrahmen. Dann klicke im Panel »Inhaltsverzeichnis« auf links oben »Erstelle Inhaltsverzeichnis«.
(D) Es sollte dann auf der neuen Seite das Verzeichnis scheinen. Ich bekomme nur ne Fehlermeldung.
(E) Damit der Publisher weiß, welche Absatzformat in der Liste dargestellt werden soll, muss die »Bildzeile-Unterschrift« anklickt sein.

For (E): No Table of Contents can be created until you tell Publisher which headings to include. This is correct processing.

For (D): Part of the problem is you did not select the heading style to include, but part is because your TOC is at the end. When the TOC is at the end, you need to select the option that in English reads "Include entries before TOC":

Neither are bugs.

Yes. That works. Thanks for the quick help. But why is that selected by default?

Do you mean "why is it not selected by default"?

If so: Because usually (at least in books in English) TOCs are near the beginning of a book, but they are after some material that should not be included. So the option is set for the most common setup, as the Developers see it.
