walt.farrell Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Before getting to your question, just a comment: this seems misplaced, as you're not reporting a bug but asking a question. It would be better in Affinity on Desktop Questions (Mac and Windows). To get different colors for Heading 1, Heading 2 etc. in your document just edit those Paragraph Styles using the Text Styles panel. To get different colors for the ToC, you can edit the TOC 1: Heading 1, TOC 1: Heading 2, etc. Text Styles the same way you edited Heading 1, etc. after you create the ToC, (The styles won't exist until you have created the ToC.)

Sorry to have asked the question in the wrong forum, however, following your advice I will always have the text of heading1 red color, I would like that when I change the section also change the color of heading 1, the same in the Table of Contents: In the text: Section 1 - heading 1 text "red" Section 2 - heading 1text "grey" In the Table of contents the same colors Thanks & Ciao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Sorry; didn't understand the desire for it to be related to the sections. I'll try to read more carefully. The only way you can do that is to use different Heading styles for each section. For example, use Heading 1 and Heading 2 for section 1, then copy those styles and name them something like Section 2 Heading 1 and Section 2 Heading 2. Do that for each section. Then when making your ToC select all the heading styles, and then edit the ToC styles that are created. To get something different you would need to enter a Feature Request in Feedback for Affinity Publisher on Desktop. I think that when the moderators see this topic they'll probably move it for you, so I wouldn't bother reposting there at this time unless they ask you to.
