Dear all,
Could you kindly help me with a tip on how to insert a
carriage-return/line-break in my table of contents, for a very long
title? I'm using Lyx 2.2.0
The problem text is below (and neither \\ nor \newline works) :
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{How Goan Identity and India's
Independence \\ Put Britain in a Diplomatic Dilemma}
\addtocontents{toc}{Victor Rangel-Ribeiro \par}
Hi Frederick,
I don't quite understand why you're using these low-level commands
instead of ordinary sectioning ones, but here's the answer:
in order for \newline to survive writing into the .toc file, you need to
protect it, thus
\protect\newline should work (not sure how well).
