Extremely Basic Primer on Creating Chapter Headings

Would like to receive recommendations as to what others have found to be the single most clear and simple explanation of how to create chapter headings in a book. I've reviewed multiple sources on this, but constantly run up against issues..
Appreciatively,
Luca

Before I can face the book once more, it would be wise to trim away some of the false starts present in the document. I have numerous paragraph and character styles names which are useless to me, created or defined in an attempt to define and use them properly, but was generally unsuccessful in doing so. Now there are dozens that can and should be deleted.
I've formatted chapters 1 and 2 manually, temporarily giving up on the method of using variables and such, just to get some forward movement, and actually would prefer not to lose them.
The document is a technical book on optincs with many subheadings, 500 pages (hence the need to understand this process). On the left side header: chapter title. Right side header:chapter suheadiing.

  • How do I create outline headings in Pages?

    I am creating a recipe book and would like to use an outline heading style for my chapter headings, for example Chapter 1 Beef, Chapter 2 Beef and so on.
    The heading for each individual recipe will not be numbered.
    I simply want to use automatic numbering for the heading style so that it adds the word "Chapter" before the next consecutive number.
    Can anybody help?
    I know how to add numbers to heading styles and I have found the Havard style numbering system in the Pages Inspector, but this does not allow me to add the word "Chapter" before the number.
    I am using Pages Version 5.5.1 (2111) and Mac OS 10.10.1 on a MacBook Pro.
    Regards
    Schof

    Unless these are page numbers you will have to add the number manually in every chapter.

  • What are the basic steps for creating a content repository?

    I am trying to create a document store on a file system (fsdb) that will hold files that are ftp's to that location. Is this possible using KM? If so, what are the basic steps for creating a file system repository and using it through KM? I have found stuff on help.sap.com but that only tells you what each component does not what actual steps need to be taken to setup KM, such as user rights , creating an entry point, so that all of KM is not visible, etc...
    If anyone knows of any guides that show a step by step process that would be great too.
    Thanks
    Paul

    Hi Paul
    First of all you need to create a new repository
    Suppose you want to add all the documents under folder Paul under C: Drive
    (Even you can put whole documents of C: drive into Paul)
    Navigate to System Admin -> System Configuration -> Knowledge management -> Content Management -> Repository Manager -> File System Repository
    There you can create a new directory by clicking on button New
    Give the parameters as follows :-
    Name               :           Anything you like
    Description       :           Anything you want
    Prefix (must start with /)  :  Probably same as your repository name like \Paul
    Lookup mode : caseless
    Root Directory   :  C:\Paul
    NOTE:  This is the trick. You need to give the proper path means folder path which you want use as repository)
    Repository Services  :  Any services you want
    Property Search : Managercom.sapportals.wcm.repository.manager.generic.search.SimplePropertySearchManager
    Security Manager         :           AclSecurityManager
    ACL Manager Cache   :           ca_cm_rep_acl
    The save it
    Now see whether the same repository is coming under KM Content or not, if not may be after restart it will come.
    I think the above information will help you. If still you have problem, please feel free to contect me.

  • Tutorial on Creating Chapter Marks is Incorrect

    I just discovered that by following the tutorial for adding chapter marks to a movie you end up with chapter marks that are duplicated in the chapter popup menu of the QT movie window.
    Instead of "Add to Selection and Scale" as indicated in the tutorial, you need to select "Add to Movie". Once I did this, the chapter marks behaved correctly and did not duplicate. You just need to be sure that the length of your text track is the same length as the video and audio tracks.
    Hope this helps someone from tearing their hair out. Luckily I discovered this before tearing all of mine out.

    Not so fast.
    There's another problem, to do with the duration of the chapter track movie before it is copied and pasted into the main movie.
    The tutorial tells us that when we export the timecode text file to work on, we should set fractions of seconds to 1/30th. I understand that this is because this is the way the Inspector shows time. Which, indeed, seems to be the case. (I just want to make it clear that I did this.)
    Next step: in my text file I fill in my timecodes for the chapters, including the last timecode, which matches the movie's duration. I save the text file, open it in Quicktime and... whaa? The duration is fractionally longer. I select all and paste into my main movie and "Add to movie" and, yes, the chapter track pushes out the end of the movie. Well, no worries, I can trim the end of the movie.
    But this is not enough! I also find that some of the chapters begin at the wrong points. Really odd. It seems to be chapter points early in the movie rather than later, which is counterintuitive since one would think that a timecode error would aggregate over the length of the movie.
    The only way I've found to overcome this issue is to launch QuickTime Player 6 and use this instead. It opens text files with chapter information and creates chapter "movies" of the right length. When pasted into the main movie, chapter markers fall in exactly the right place.
    I think I'd better make a bug report. Anyone else come across this?

  • IDVD chapter headings anamorphic

    According to Apple's technical note T51611, an anamorphic 16:9 sequence must be exported from Final Cut Express to iDVD using certain custom settings from the File>Export>Using Quicktime Conversion menu. However, this bypasses the "Include Chapter Headings" option in the regular Export>As Quicktime Movie menu. Is there any way to include chapter headings for iDVD in a sequence exported using Quicktime conversion? Does this problem not occur in DVD Pro?

    In http://www.fcpbook.com/Video9.html Tom describes how to fix your 16:9 movie after Export/Quicktime Movie (which preserves chapter markers).

  • Create colum headings using text elements

    Hi Experts,
    I want to create column heading of a report using text element, how can i create create column headings using text elements and how can i use in the top-of-page event.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    1 For Creating Text Element,
    go to Se38 -
    > Write Name of the Program - > Click Change button - > Then go to GoTo on Menu Bar--> text Elements
    > Select Text Symbol
    In First Column( Sym)  Write any Number which is not used  like 001, 002.....
    In Second Column (Text) write in text or description .... like Sales Order....
    U can use this text Symbol in code -
    >  text-001, text-002.....
    2 In order to insert a report heading in to the ALV grid you need to perform the following steps:
                        1. Update 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' FM call to include 'top-of-page' FORM
                    2. Create 'top-of-page' FORM
    3 In order to add event functionality such as 'END_OF_PAGE' to the ALV grid you need to setup the
      IT_EVENTS option of the ALV function module. Also depending on which event you are using you
       may also need to setup the print parameters by activating the IS_PRINT option. Please note for events
      such as end_of_page, end_of_list etc they will not be displayed on screen but only in the printed
       output.
            Step 1. Add data declaration for events and print parameters
            Step 2. Update 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' FM call to include parameter 'it_events' and 'is_print'
            Step 3. Add code to setup events table and print parameters
            Step 4. Create event FORM(s), which are executed when event is triggered
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Creating chapter menus on FCP & sending to my project on iDVD

    Hi,
    I have tried to create chapter markers on FCP for my project and then made a quicktime movie which i then sent to idvd.
    Problem is, i do not get what i expect on idvd which is a submenu with the chapters. I just get the project.
    I have read up on FCP for chapter mrks and also idvd but obviosly somethings going wrong.
    Thanking you in advance,
    Maz

    Assuming you are using FCP 3.0.2 or later, is this how you exported your QT movie from FCP > iDvd? (if you selected something else other than what is shown below, then it can be problematic for iDvd).
    Hope this is helpful but if not come on back.

  • How can I create chapter marks in order to export to a DVD later?

    With the new version of IMovie for Mac, I am not able to find where this function is.

    Since Apple has ended support for DVD burning they felt no need for chapter markers in iMovie version 10.
    iMovie version 9 is still in your Applications folder and it can create chapter markers.

  • Problem with creating chapter-markers

    Hi everyone,
    as the title already says it, I've got a problem with creating chapter markers in Quicktime Pro 7.6.4. There's something wrong with the font, displayed in Quicktime. The problem first appeared a few days ago. Before this, everything went fine and I don't have a clue what causes the problem.
    Please click HERE to see a screen-recording of the steps I do to create chapters:
    - convert the chapters into unformatted text and save it as Unicode (UTF-16) text file.
    - open it in Quicktime and everything (including the german umlauts) is displayed correct.
    - export it into a Text-file with description
    when I open the new text file in Quicktime, the fonts are displayed in asian letters, but when I view it in the Texteditor, the text is almost correct, BUT the umlauts are not ok. So I go on with...
    - correct the umlauts and save a new file as Unicode (UTF-16) again.
    After I open the new file in Quicktime, the text is completely gone. As the text file seems to be ok in the Texteditor, I guess there must be something wrong with Quicktime. I tried to reinstall Quicktime 7 from the "Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard" Installation-Disc, but the problem persists.
    I' would appreciate any help...
    Thanks in advance and best regards,
    Michael

    I'm having the exact same issue. I have created my movie in IMovie 09 then under the "share " menu I sent the movie to iDVD. Everything looks fine on screen, but all I get on the final product is the movie.
    After digging deeper into the tutorials all they show is dragging a movie into the idvd shell, not sharing via imovie.
    Thus I'm currently attempting to create a quicktime movie then drag it into the IDVD shell. I think that way the chapter markers and everything should show up and burnt into the final project. I'm guessing the "share" option with the IDVD from iMovie doesn't work properly???

    I have a 1st generation AirPort Extreme and want to create a guest network, can I? If so, how? Can I do this by adding an Airport Express?

    I have a 1st generation AirPort Extreme and want to create a guest network, can I?
    This version of the AirPort Extreme does not have guest network capability.
    Can I do this by adding an Airport Express?
    Why not simply buy a new Airport Express.....which does have main and guest network capability*.....and sell the AirPort Extreme?
    * The AirPort Express will need to connect to a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway type of device.....for the guest network feature to work correctly.

  • Audio book has no chapter headings

    Downloaded "Walden".
    It appears in iTunes as Part 1 and Part 2.
    No chapter headings.
    No way to navigate through eleven+ hours.
    Imagine a CD with no song titles.
    Think of a city with no street signs.
    Is this universal?
    Any help?

    Glad you got the Audiobook sorted out. Audible.com seems to have a really good model for iTunes and iPod integrated audiobooks, as well. I've been using their service for quite some time, and highly recommend it.
    In iTunes, click your iTunes menu and select Preferences. Click the Playback tab. If 'Crossfade playback' is selected, go ahead and de-select that option and click OK.

  • Creating Chapter Markers

    Hi, What's easiest way to create Chapter Markers in DVD Studio Pro 4?
    Thanks!

    Once you've place the video on a track,,zoom in on it, then click in the area above the Timeline to make a chapter marker. Note that if you're video asset is already encoded as MPEG-2 (.m2v), the chapter marker will be placed on the nearest I frame.

  • Missing chapter headings

    Recently purchased a new ipad air 2. Upgraded to ios 8.1.3 and then downloaded my previously purchased movies from iTunes and most of the movies have chapter headings still associated with them, but several are now missing the chapter headings. These same movies previously had the chapter headings in place on my prior ipad 2 (not an air), but still with ios 8.1.2.
    Have tried deleting the movies with missing chapter headings and then re-downloading them, but still no change.
    Any suggestions?

    Just noodling here a little . . .
    1. Which heading style(s) are you using for topic titles? Are
    they consistently applied for all topics, looking at the html view?
    Are there any stray spaces or html code immediately before the
    <begin heading> tags?
    2. Are you generating print doc with the project's style
    mapping dot, or some other?
    3. Did you select "Maintain HTML heading levels"?
    In points 2 and 3, I don't know whether these settings (or
    which option) may be causing the problem; just suggesting that you
    change one at a time to test print output.
