Morgelt Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Trying to use both Index and ToC features, but inserting either a Table of Contents of Contents or Index results in only one entry being displayed. Have these features been fully enabled at this stage of the beta, or is this something known to be fixed with future updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 They work here, you need to place all the index marks and decide what Paragraph styles will be used for the ToC.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger terry Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 For me any updating of the TOC removes the existing format and no amount of clicking lets me re-format it to the original style. Paragraph formats for TOC seem not to work. Am I missing something (probably)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragraph formats for TOC seem not to work. Am I missing something (probably)? As long as you update the TOC-related text styles (TOC 1: Heading 2, etc.) by editing them in the Text Styles panel it should work. At least, it does for me, but I'm on Windows. However, if you make local modifications by selecting TOC entries and using the Context Toolbar I think that updating the TOC would cause loss of those changes. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Roger terry Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 seems not to work on a Mac. I select chapter head and create a new style for it. As soon as I apply it, all the text in the TOC changes to what I think is the default. No possibility to update a toc style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No possibility to update a toc style I'm not completely sure what you're doing when you say that you create a new style for a chapter head. I would simply use the supplied Heading 2 and modify it. Perhaps you could supply a small .afpub file showing how you have things setup, including your new styles and the ToC, and then we could make some suggestions based on that example. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Old Bruce Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 So long as I change the TOC Paragraph Styles they are remembered and applied when I update the ToC.

Roger terry Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 It seems to me that the TOC and indexing are problem areas. I have time today to take a good look at TOC and have started with this short video. When I said section I meant paragraph. Thanks TOC.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 TOC 1 has a selection of styles applied to the entire Table of Contents which are different (perhaps) from TOC and TOC 2. I think what you are doing is changing the whole ToC formatting by choosing the different "TOC Style:" (TOC, TOC 2, TOC 3 etc.). This will change all the formatting to what you have in the Paragraph and Character Styles. Look at your Text Styles Studio as you move the cursor through the different sections/ listings in your page. At 0:30 you can see that you have the Paragraph Style "TOC:Heading Rog" chosen for the '1 Introduction' I'll wager the setup for the style is different for TOC 1 is different for that '1 Introduction' in the Paragraph Style, it may even have a different name.
