How to indent second line in a very long heading when creating a table of contents?

I need to make a table of contents.
Some of the chapter headings are very long and fill more than a single line.
When I create my table of contents, I want the second lines to be 'pushed in' in the table.
Like this
1 chaper one xxxxxxxxxxx
2 Chapter two xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
3 Chapter three x xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx
4 Charpter four xxxxx xxxxx
5 Chapter five xxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxx
I thought I had solved it by having the actual chapter headings indented like this, but the table of contents overlooks this/overrules this.

My CS3/PS has started to change the cursor into a line of three VERY small icons when dragged over a picture or menu. Thus it is VERY difficult for instance to drag a layer in the layer list to the wastebasket - the cursor simply is too big for the waistebasket icon. Even all other exact work is impossible. Of course I have checked all the cursor presets but nothing seems to help. My OS is Windows7.

Have you tried resetting Preferences?
A logical next step would be to reset your Preferences.
To reset Preferences:
If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close it (Quit). Then hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop.
A dialog box will pop up asking if you want to delete the existing Preferences file (the "Settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing Preferences file will be scrapped and a new one will be created.

Any tutorials on how to use the daily build of the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

Is there a tutorial on Adobe on how to use the daily build of
the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

The approach you take might depend on a few things, but it boils down to using mouse interactive coding to trigger whatever effect you eventually realize. The code you use will depend on the version of Actionscript you plan to use.
You could make this as a movieclip that is normally stopped at its first frame and when you mouseover or click the movieclip, it animates along its own timeline to its enlarged state. If the thumbnail is very small and the larger version is substantially larger, and both need to be clear images, this might be the better approach.
If this only involves enlarging something, you could also probably realize it just using Actionscript Tween coding rather than timeline animation.

How do I create a Table of Contents in InDesign CS6 for print that easily converts to epub?

How do I create a Table of Contents in InDesign CS6 for a print book that easily converts to epub?
Can anyone point me to a link for a step-by-step (not a video) on setting up all the elements of a print book properly (pages, table of contents and index) so they will convert and reflow perfectly from print to epub in InDesign CS6. This is not about building an ebook from ground up, but taking 50 backlisted print books (converted from old versions of Quark to InDesign) that now need to be converted to epub formats.
OR could someone point me to the link in the Adobe InDesign CS6 support that explains how to create a Table of Contents for a print book (5.5" x 8.5", 288 pages), one that will convert when the file is converted to ePub (for MAC OSX)?
Just downloaded the 706 page inDesign CS6 reference manual from Adobe <http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/indesign_reference.pdf> but there's not even a search feature on the pdf file.
Up until this week, we have only done print books, creating the TOC the old fashioned way, as a fixed page, comprised of two columns: page numbers and chapters/subject. The files I have created are taken by our printer and printed beautifully.
However, when I convert the same book to epub in CS6, the character and paragraph styles converted beautifully - but everything else is all over the place! The table of contents is on different pages, the columns split apart. That goes for the page contents as well - everything is all over the place. when it's converted to a pdf -- total perfection. Never any problems converting with perfection to pdf format and reading those on the various readers.
(Thank you so much in advance for any help).

<http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/indesign_reference.pdf> Adobe Digital Reader does have a search feature for reading pdfs. Found the TOC instructions on page 176 of 706 pages.

How to create a Table of Contents using Pages 09?

Hi guys,
I have little problems creating a Table of Contents in Pages, though it seems quite simple. I'm working with the template 'Term Paper' and I use paragraph styles (Title, Heading I, II, etc.). I have some very long documents (about 80 pages long) so I wanted to create a TOC (using sections) but it says:
The table of contents is empty because none of the paragraph styles selected in the Document Inspector are used in the document.
When I compare the paragraph styles I do use and the paragraph styles in the Document Inspector, they match. So I'm a bit upset about this because I really need to use this great feature!
Thanks for you answers guys!

I would say: Try and Error. Create a copy of your document and unmark in the copied document in the document inspector all boxes for the TOC. Then mark them again. Maybe you should also delete the paragraph styles and mark them again. If that doesn't work, try to copy the complete text of your document to a new created one. Maybe that works.
Good luck!
P.S.: If that doesn't work look here. Maybe this helps.

How to Create a Table of Contents From an Imported PDF File?

I have imported a 150 page PDF file into inDesign 5. I want to create a Table of Contents for my document, but there are no paragraph or heading styles in the document. If I built the document in inDesign, I would have labeled each chapter "Heading 1" and then instructed inDesign to collect up all the Heading 1s and make a TOC automatically.
But I didn't create this PDF, it has no formatting at all. Its just been placed in the inDesign document space.
Anyone have any tips of how I can pick out all the Chapter headings.....they are in a distinctive format (14 point bold) from the rest of the document text.
Anyone?

InDesign cannot read *anything* out of a PDF file.
Open in Acrobat, copy heading, paste in InDesign. Repeat until done.

How do i change the cursor on a jtable header when clicked for sorting?

here is my question, how do i change the cursor on a jtable header when I click the header for sorting?
I think it is suppose to be in the fragment of code where the header listener is implemented for sorting, but I'm not quite sure what is the exact component that holds everything so that i can change the cursor...
below is what I've tried, but it doesn't seem to work... thank you
public void addMouseListenerToHeaderInTable(JTable table) {
final TableSorter sorter = this;
final JTable tableView = table;
tableView.setColumnSelectionAllowed(false);
MouseAdapter listMouseListener = new
MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
TableColumnModel columnModel =
tableView.getColumnModel();
int viewColumn =
columnModel.getColumnIndexAtX(e.getX());
int column =
tableView.convertColumnIndexToModel
(viewColumn);
System.out.println("column = "+column);
if (e.getClickCount() == 1 && column != -1) {
System.out.println("Sorting ...");
Cursor oldCursor =
tableView.getRootPane().getCursor();
System.out.println("oldCursor.getType()
= "+oldCursor.getType());
if (oldCursor.getType() !=
Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR){
JComponent parentPane =
tableView.getRootPane();
parentPane.getContentPane().setCursor
(new Cursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
parentPane.setCursor(new Cursor
(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
Cursor newCursor =
parentPane.getCursor();
System.out.println("newCursor.getType
() = "+newCursor.getType());
int shiftPressed = e.getModifiers(
&InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK;
boolean ascending = (shiftPressed == 0);
//System.out.println("tableView.getRootPane()
is "+tableView.getRootPane().getRootPane());
sorter.sortByColumn(column, ascending);
tableView.getRootPane().setCursor(new Cursor
(Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
//System.out.println("Done sorting");
JTableHeader th = tableView.getTableHeader();
th.addMouseListener(listMouseListener);
}

Hi,
Try setting the cursor for the table header.
table.getHeader().setCursor(Wait_Cursor);

How to create a table of contents (TOC) linking to specific pages of different (multiple) PDFs

Hi All,
I would like to create clickable Table of Contents (TOC) that can lead to a sub clickable TOC that would lead to a specific page of different PDFs within a folder.
Is that possible?
Secondly, is is possible to create a search box that upon typing a specific word (not related to text within the PDFs), that word to be linked to a specific page of a particular PDF out of many within a folder?
To make it more clear, I have a database of specifications of equipment and drawings of a building, all in multiple PDF files. I would like to be able to unify all those PDFs and if I type the room number of the building to be presented with a menu of choces pointing to services assosiated with that room, being elctrical power drawings, lighting drawings or drawings of Air Conditioning and Ducting associated with that room. So I type a room number, then I get a menu of Power, Lights, Fire Alarm, or Ducting all associated with that room, then if I click Fire Alarm to be directed straight to the drawing within a PDF related to that room.
Thanks

I would say: Try and Error. Create a copy of your document and unmark in the copied document in the document inspector all boxes for the TOC. Then mark them again. Maybe you should also delete the paragraph styles and mark them again. If that doesn't work, try to copy the complete text of your document to a new created one. Maybe that works.
Good luck!

How to create a table of contents in a PDF

I was wondering if anyone knew how to use preview in order to create a table of contents. This would make it easier for me to find my way around my PDF files.
Thanks

Preview cannot do this - it is not a PDF editing utility. If you have the original document in an editable format (eg a Pages, or Word document) then you can edit it, print it, and from the print dialogue, save as a PDF. Otherwise you'll need the full Adobe product or similar to acheive what you want.

How to create labeled table of Content with expand and collapse

Hi All,
Can somebody help me how to create labeled table of Content with expand and collapse as example given below:
User1
Template1
Template2
User2
+
User3
Template1
Template2
Like when we see expand (+) and collapse (-) button when we click on 'about this page' link.
Thanks
Bhupendra

Hi,
Tou can use Table inside table to show the details this way but I'm not sure about Expand/Collapse.
Expand/Collapse are part of HGRID.
I think we can develop this functionality with little manipulation.

I am using iPad pages, and figuring out how to create a table of content.

Hello
I am using pages on my iPad Air, and figuring out how to create a table of content? (TOC)
Anyone can help me please?

Based on what I have found, at this time, it appears that the only way to add a TOC or Bibliography to a Pages file is via Pages for MAC. Once that is done, you can automatically add entries in Pages for iOS. But you cannot initially add the element.
It is not out of the question that there are some templates for Pages for iOS available that already have these added and available - but I cannot say first hand. All of the built in templates for iOS appear to be for short format documents and I have yet to find one that includes the TOC or Bibliography.
