Sequence of TOC not showing as expected

[deannak]

Hi there -

I've created a document where each chapter has a title and subtitle, and then set these up to appear in certain formats in the TOC.  It's all looking more or less as expected, EXCEPT that the sequence of entries in the TOC doesn't match the sequence in the document.

E.g.  I have a chapter with Title = Isla Blanca, Subtitle = A beach from days gone by.  They're showing in this sequence on the document, but in the TOC, the sequence is reversed.  It ends up looking like A beach from days gone by goes with the previous chapter, instead of the one it belongs with.

The sequence of text frames on the page matches the sequence in the layer stack, and both show the title before the subtitle.  

How can I get these to show in the order I need?  Thanks for your assistance!

Just to make sure: in the Layer panel, the earlier text (which would appear first in the TOC) would be lower in the layer stack. 

Is that the way you have it?

Thank you Walt!!  

That was indeed the problem.  My layer stack was the same as the sequence on the page, i.e. title above subtitle.  Once I changed the layers to have subtitle above title, it worked just like I wanted.  

Thank you so much for your help!   -  Deanna.
