Double entry in TOC of book

[RM f/g]

A document has headings which consists of a chapter number and text, both are placed in two separate, linked text frames. Number and text are in the same paragraph with a regular space between them.

 

In the table of contents of a book a heading like this results in two entries, the first including the number, the second without it.

 

I reported something like this some years ago: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/117152-double-entry-in-toc/

It was solved then and it’s still is ok for a table of contents in a single document.

Hi RM f/g,

I am currently investigating this with a member of our QA team but we are running into a separate bug that is preventing us from investigating this fully right now. Unfortunately until this bug is solved it will be difficult to investigate this further however I have made a note to ensure this gets investigated once we receive word the bug is solved. In the meantime I'd recommend deleting the extra entries manually as you have done in the past, I apologise for any inconvenience this causes you.

Thanks

Hi @Callum

Thanks for looking into this.

This is only inconvenient. I'm sure there are more important issues to solve. First things first.
