RE: TOC not what should be

[Rick Quatro]

Your example has $chaptnum, but the actual building block is $chapnum.

TOC not what should be

[poshedly]

Hey all,

(FM8.0 on an HP Pavilion pc)

I'm having no success in generating a book TOC where each line entry includes 
the topic (either level 1 or level 2), followed by a tabbed dot leader, 
followed by the chapnum, then a dash and then the pagenum, like this:

BLAH-BLAH LEVEL 1 1-3
   BLAH-BLAH LEVEL 2 .1-4

The chapnum and pagenum were set up in each of the chapter master page footers 
via Format  HeadersFooters, Insert page# and Insert other  Chapter Number 
with a dash in between (as shown above)

With the book file and all chapters opened, Format  Document  Numbering and 
1 was selected for the first chapter and Continue Numbering from Previous 
File in Book was used for the subsequent chapters.

Then at the book level, it's Format  Add Table of Contents, then moving only 
the Section Title, Topic Level 1 and Topic Level 2 from the Don't Include box 
 to the Include Paragraphs Tagged box (the TOC is set to be placed right 
after the book's title page and before the first chapter).

In the Update Book dialog box, all checkboxes are checked and I click Update 
to generate the file.

The resultant file is in Times Roman with a space and a single page number for 
everything.

BLAH-BLAH 1 (displays as the paragraph for Topic Level 1TOC)
BLAH-BLAH 2 (displays as the paragraph for Topic Level 2TOC)

After using paragraph designer to Update all with a Arial font, then a 6.9 
in. right-aligned tab with dot leader, I check the reference page, and set the 
Topic Level 1TOC entry to 
$paratext.$chaptnum-$pagenum

and the Topic Level 2TOC entry to 
   $paratext..$chaptnum-$pagenum

What I get is this:

BLAH-BLAH LEVEL 1 3
   BLAH-BLAH LEVEL 2 .4

I've checked and doublechecked my settings and even consulted chapter 12 of my 
printout of the official FM 8.0 manual (what a doosy). Nothing seems amiss, but 
still it's just not working.

Disregard the misspellings in my explanation: chaptnum is really chapnum.

RE: TOC not what should be

[Fred Ridder]

OK, not a misspelled variable name...

 

Did you do an Update Book after you added the $chapnum variable to the 
reference page in the TOC file? You've got to regenerate the TOC after you do 
anything that will change the content rather than just the formatting of the 
table.

TOC not what should be

[Fred Ridder]

OK, not a misspelled variable name...



Did you do an Update Book after you added the <$chapnum> variable to the 
reference page in the TOC file? You've got to regenerate the TOC after you do 
anything that will change the content rather than just the formatting of the 
table.

As Fred said, after adding <$chapnum> to the reference page TOC spec
entries, you have to update/generate. But you may also have another
problem regarding this:

> With the book file and all chapters opened, Format > Document >
Numbering

> Previous File in Book was used for the subsequent chapters.

You need to set both the chapter numbering and the page numbering.
They're on separate tabs of the Numbering Properties dialog. For chapter
1, set both Chapter # and First Page # to 1, Format Numeric. For
subsequent chapters, yes, you set Chapter to Continue Numbering from
Previous File in Book. But for Page, you still set First Page # to 1,
Format Numeric. 

IOW, if your page numbering uses chapter number prefixes, then it should
start over for each chapter. It would be quite confusing to use a folio
numbering format (chapter-page), but number pages continuously
throughout. 

HTH!
Richard

TOC not what should be

[Rick Quatro]

Your example has <$chaptnum>, but the actual building block is <$chapnum>.

TOC not what should be

[Rick Quatro]

Before generating the TOC, right+click on each component in the book, and
choose Numbering. Make sure that each component's number is correct, then
try generating the TOC.
