Hardware: MacBook Air, M3, 15 inch. 16GB RAM, Sequoia 15.1.1. Second display (24", 1920x1080).

I have a book with 30 chapters. Book and chapters attached in the zip file.

I've added a TOC (in the 1st chapter of the book, Mach Lang Front Matter). Right now, the TOC is set to Section. I only need Header 1 in the TOC.

If I click on Book in the Scope, it'll start and then it'll crash.

Hi @factus10,

Can you upload the Mach Lang Front Matter.afpub file as it's missing from the zip file...

Hi @factus10,

See how you get on with the attached version...

It doesn't seem happy when synchronising with the Style Source Chapter having tried a few of them but the attached version appears to be okay though if you could test it further, make a couple of Heading edits and then update the ToC and see whether you still get the crash and let us know either way...

Well, I saw the TOC.

I edited the heads for 2 of the docs in the book, then clicked the update TOC option (in Preflight). And it crashed.

Thanks for confirming, I had a feeling that might happen…

Even though it makes no sense to do so, if you change the Style Source Chapter to the Mach Lang Front Matter Chapter and again edit Chapter Headings and refresh the ToC in the ToC panel, does that still result in a crash?

That works... but why?

That's the part we need to figure out. Currently, I'm unsure why that is working, but it's not when synchronising with other Chapters.

Ah, ok :)  It's not a deal breaker, I can do it by hand for now. 

I really appreciate the help. I've been a happy Serif customer since PagePlus 3 and the Affinity products are 🤌 😁
