How do I make a multi-line heading show up as a single line in the Table of Contents?

I'm writing a document where the headings often have a line break in them for the sake of formatting. When I generate a Table of Contents, they show up as two entries on the same page instead of as a single heading.
For example, if I have a section like:
Oh My God
You're Totally Not Going to Read This Section
Section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, section text, etc.
Then in the table of centents it shows up as something like:
The Section Before That Section You're Not Going to Read ... 14
Oh My God .................................................. 17
You're Totally Not Going to Read This Section .............. 17
The Section After That Section You're Not Going to Read .... 20
When what I really want is a Table of Contents like this:
The Section Before That Section You're Not Going to Read ... 14
Oh My God You're Totally Not Going to Read This Section .... 17
The Section After That Section You're Not Going to Read .... 20
(Actually, I have a bunch of sections with titles like this all in a row, so it looks much worse than in the example.)
How do I do this: Get the Table of Contents to ignore the carriage return in the middle of the section header?

Try a Soft return, Shift + Return, instead of Paragraph break.

  • How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?

    How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?
    Currently, I'm using
    table.setAutoCreateRowSorter(true);to allow the user to sort the table.
    However, I want to be able to load something based on the selected row's index. The problem is that when the table is rearranged, the change appears to only be local, in other words, the actual table isn't changing.
    For instance:
    index 0 "A"
    index 1 "B"
    index 2 "C"
    Sorted in reverse gives me
    "C"
    "B"
    "A"
    But C is still index 2 (instead of 0).
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to get only partial text of a paragraph into the table of content?

    Hi guys,
    currently I'm working on a manuscript based on the publication manual of the American Psychological Association.
    Unfortunately, there is some sort of heading that's placed right in front of further text. Here an example:
    +This is my heading.+ Now ordinary text formatted differently should follow.
    Does anyone here know, how to get the text of the heading (but not the following text) into the table of content? For as far as I know I can't format the heading as a different paragraph than the following text.
    By the way, I use pages'08.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Dennis,
    thanks for your suggestion, unfortunately I already tried that and it didn't work. I have created several unique styles. Problem is, I need two diferent styles in *one paragraph* - one style for the "heading", which is consistent to the APA manual not an own paragraph (sorry, not my idea...), and another style for the following text. As my example above shows, the heading is followed by usual text and I may not press return after the heading and switch to a new paragraph..
    It has to look exactly like this:
    +heading in italics.+ Now heading is followed by usual text without changing the paragraph or starting a new line. Blurb blurb blurb whatsoever blurb blurb. The text goes on an on and an on you see.
    I can't format the heading differently than the text (because if I try, the whole paragraph is formatted this way) and so I can't add just the heading to the TOC. Do you see what my problem is? Got any other suggestion?

  • How do I add headers to the Table of Contents?

    Hi there,
    I have a book that mainly consists of text boxes rather than inline text. The main title (on each page) is what I want to show up in the table of contents so the reader can just tap the title and jump to the page. How I tried to do this was make the titles "Header 1" and then go to table of contents and add that to the list but it doesn't seem to be working. I am thinking it's because TOC might only work with inline text. Does anyone have any other suggestions for this?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Caleb

    Sorry, I'll try to describe this layout as best I can and if I still need to change it to make it work then I guess that's life.
    Page Layout
    Preface
    Mission Statement
    About the Author
    Acknowledgements
    Using the Manuals
    Chapter 1 - Muscles of the Lower Leg
    Soleus Medial
    Soleus Lateral
    Plantaris
    etc.
    Chapter 2 - Muscle Quizzing
    Soleus Medial
    Soleus Lateral
    Plantaris
    etc.
    So when your in the table of contents, you can swipe between preface, muscles of the lower leg, and quizzing pretty easily. In preface (underneath the preface title in the table of contents) it shows a list saying Mission statement, about the author, etc.) I want that same list to appear for the pages under Muscle Quizzing.

  • How to remove the bookmark from the table of contents?

    Hi everyone, I have a question:
    How to remove the bookmark from the table of contents in Captivate 6?
    Regards...

    Doug, your frustration is making you "bug" gun trigger happy. LOL
    LOL, I suppose I have.
    I believe the answer you are looking for is in the publishing preferences: under LMS advanced settings, look for the option: never send resume data.
    [can someone please confirm this - I am not at a desktop now]
    Anyhow, selecting this option will stop resume data - so the lesson will treat even returning learners as new. Hopefully, this will work for you.
    This works! Thank you again!
    *but* Why isn't Captivate asking the learner to make the choice of whether to start over or resume. It does this correctly if the lesson is published stand-alone.
    Thanks again!

  • How do I get the table of contents to toggle? I opened it while reading one book I had checked out from my library, but it is still open when I start another book. I am using Adobe 4 and Windows 8.1 on my PC.

    How do I get the table of contents to toggle? It has remained open since I opened it while reading two books ago. Thanks for the help.

    Thank you for your advice. I followed your directions, but came up with the same results. However, I did discover that whenever I open up the iPhoto Library that is already existing on my MacBook a certain set of pictures shows up. But then when I open up the iPhoto Library from the Hard drive another set of pictures shows up. BUT not ALL of my pictures are showing up on the iPhoto Library from the hard drive. At least the last two years of pictures are not showing up?! Actually, it appears that all the pictures are there from when I started using iPhoto about 5 years ago up until around the time that I got my iMac desktop computer and started using that (2 years ago). I have noticed that more recent videos I have made are showing up in a folder on the hard drive, but will not appear when I open up iMovie?! Any ideas on how to access my pictures from the last 2 years off of the hard drive???

  • How can I include, in the table of content, a title that I have put on a shape?

    Hello all,
    1. I have a table of content
    2. I have added shapes
    3. I wrote text (titles. subtitles) on the shapes
    4. They do not appear in the table of content.
    5. They only appear in the table of content if they are not on a shape.
    Pages 5.5.2
    Can you help?
    Law

    Hi Law,
    Text in a shape or a text box will not feature in the table of contents.
    To get a colour behind your titles, type them into your document (not a shape). Format as Heading or some other paragraph style the TOC will recognise.
    Select the title text and Format Panel > Text > Font > Gearwheel > Advanced Options.
    Choose Character Fill Color and choose a colour from the palette (left) or colour circle (right).
    Example Titles (all on the same page for a smaller screen shot).
    Chapter 3 (in a coloured Text Box or Shape) does not appear in the TOC:
    Hint for cheats :
    To give the titles a wider Character Fill Colour, add some Tab characters before and after.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How do I locate the page I am viewing in the Table of Contents?

    Is there a way to open the table of contents to the page that I am already viewing?
    If I have searched a document, and I am at some random page, how do I find out where I am in the table of contents?  For example, in the eclipse help system and IBM's "info centers" there is a button that opens the table of contents to the nearest page to where I am so that I can guage the general intent of the pages I am reading, find related content or quickly assess that this is not what I'm looking for.
    I think the TOC is really a collection of "bookmarks" in a PDF file and not a true TOC, but I would assume that if they are sequential there would be a function to open the nearest one.  Can someone tell me if that exists?
    Thanks
    Doug

    If you are running Firefox 4 or higher on the "old" computer, then:
    (1) Open Help > Troubleshooting Information
    (2) Click the "Open Containing Folder" button next to "Profile Directory"
    (3) Copy everything to a safe place (please note that the copy of your profile does contain your browsing history and saved passwords, so best not to store in on media that you insert into public PCs)
    You can copy the bookmarkbackups folder to a USB flash drive, then on your new computer, import your bookmarks from there. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing%20up%20and%20restoring%20bookmarks Backing up and restoring bookmarks | How to | Firefox Help].
    (To clone your entire setup, after you install Firefox on the new PC, you can close it and replace the contents of the new profile folder with the contents you saved from the old computer. That doesn't always work, though.)
