Table of Contents Slider Issues

I have been told by iBooks that on my iBook that I have published that when you look at The TOC (Table of Contents) in landscape mode the slider either doesn't move or it goes back to the first page (copyright page). Any ideas how I solve this?

Hi there
Good on ya for reporting. It's fine to sound disgusted. If
you don't tell Adobe they will never know and will blissfully
assume that everyone is pleased as punch with the changes.
Personally, because the TOC functionality was so limiting in
version 3 I just avoided it. As a result, I tended to largely
ignore it in the beta. What I did see seemed like a vast
improvement.
Keep in mind that a future release may also be an interim
update before a new major release.
Cheers... Rick

Table of Contents Style Issue

I am a new user of InDesign 5 and am working with a Table of Contents that was prepared for me in my office. I have updated my text and inserted a few pages into my document and now have some odd formatting showing up in the TOC. I have deleted my text, added it back in, applied different styles and checked to be sure that I don't have any overrides applied. The issue is that the leader (....) seems not to be showing up for about 1/4 of my TOC entries. Any help would be appreciated.
Grainy (sorry) Image below (note items: Filter 4, Import 11, Export 21 as examples)
Thanks!

jclarke2,
You got verify all the styles envolved.
Try first verify this:
For each style included has to be similar like this example. The "entry style" can't be "[Same style]" like on the pic. You have to create one style and verify if don't have any tag besides the leader.
Good luck!

Table of Contents webpart issue

Hi Everyone,
I have added a Table of contents webpart to the page(to display all lists, libraries & sub sites) and I have given the desired site url & set "No.of levels to 3". But I am unable to see any list, library or subsites in my webpart.(Also
I am unable to see the checkboxes "Show pages", "Show hidden sites etc.,) Please refer below screenshot
Can any one help me what might be the issue?
Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
Table of Contents WebPart display site contents navigation according to navigation. From the screenshot you provided, are you using Managed navigation currently? In my environment, if I use Managed navigation and insert Table of Contents WebPart, the setting
of WebPart displays as yours.
Please go to site settings > Look and Feel > Navigation, switch to Structural Navigation and test the issue again.

Table of Contents formatting issue

Table of Contents will not format properly when I change document margins. The TOC looked great until I had to adjust my left margin to 2inches for printing purposes. Now the page numbers are only a couple of spaces from each header, and it looks really bad. Is there an easy fix, so that I can adjust margins without screwing up the TOC formatting?
Thanks!

Thanks Jerrold,
I have certianly considered this an option if I can't get this resolved before I have to turn in my paper.
I bought Pages to write my thesis, espcially since I have to include a lot of capitoned images. I expected an Apple program to run smoothly and be intuitive, but it has been buggy at times, freezing up, and issues like the wacky TOC formatting from changing the margin size don't make sense.
Thanks again for your time.

Table of Contents font issue

I have been having issue with font display in Table of Contents. Please take a look:
In iBooks Author:
In iBook when previewed, it is partially chopped off!
I can only got the font to display right when scale to a size like 36. There is no option to increase the text box height, moving the text up or down, or move to front does not solve the issue.
What do you think? Thanks!

Thanks for the help. But it does not work. There is no text box (only 2 points on side of text). The text height cannot be changed.
The text alignment is default to be top, but tried centre and bottom does not change anything (seems like there is no text box).

Slides in a Captivate 7 Table of Contents is not Navigable

This project is navigable from the table of contents until the final two slides. You cannot click on the last two slides (Slides 45 and 46) to view while in the course.
- I have hidden the Quiz Review Slide (Slide 47) because we do not want the results displayed. This does not seem to be the issue. When I unhide the slide, I am still unable to click our last two slides "Practice Session" and "Exposure Control Plan."
- I have selected and unselected "Self-Paced Learning" in the TOC Settings
- I have deleted the content slides and created new slides
Please advise on the next step and thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi all
One thing that will prevent the TOC from behaving properly is if you have question slides sprinkled through the project here and there. If you configured the Quiz settings so that every slide MUST be answered, you won't be able to navigate beyond the first unanswered question. Sometimes this makes you think the TOC is broken, when in fact, it's simply respecting the setting and not allowing the user to navigate beyond the unanswered question.

Table of contents issue

Hi ,
I am an XML publisher newbie. I looked around in the forums and couldn't find an answer to this. I am using XML Publisher 5.6.2. I created an RTF template and created the Table of contents section using Microsoft word. When I use this template to generate a rtf document, I am able to see the table of contents. But, the page number always shows up as 0. when I click on the link, it takes me to the correct location in the generated doc. But, there is no way to update the page numbers. Can somebody help?
Thanks!

Hi Vetsrini,
I tried exactly what you said. I put <?company?> as heading2 in a for loop. Once I added it , I updated the TOC (entire table). When the output is generated, I can see "Company1", "Company2" etc in my TOC. They are getting dynamically generated. But, the Page number still shows up as zero. When I click on them, it would take me to the correct location. But, the page number would show up as zero. I tried this from XML Desktop publisher (using preview). I also tried to generate it through a Java program by calling the APIs. The output is still the same. I have one more issue and I am not sure whether it is related to this or not. I am not able to display the page number in the generated output. I have defined it in the footer in my template. But, the output doesn't show the page number.
Thanks.

Table of Contents Issue/Question

Hi everyone, I hope I can put my question accurately into words.
I'm working on a 450 page product catalog in Indesign CS5 for the mac. The catalog has 7 main sections, in which there are numerous smaller sections. I need to create a table of contents for these smaller sections, however, my issue is this; my table of contents is based on the product names which I've applied a paragraph style to, but, also included on the same line that the product name is, are several small icons. I used the library function to put these icons into place. I put my curser where I wanted the icons to be, went to the library, right clicked on the icon I wanted, and selected place item. I found this to be the easiest way since there were approximately 1500 products in the catalog. So, my issue is, now that I'm creating a mini-table of contents for these numerous sections, the icons are included in my table of contents, which I don't want. I can manually go in and delete each icon, but I'm thinking there has to be a faster way. I thought of possibly a grep style but can't figure out how to make that work.
Any help would be appreciated! It's going to take a while to delete each one of those. I hope I've described this accurately; please feel free to ask any questions if it's not clear.
Thanks so much!
Annette

Oh my gosh, that did it! Thank you sooooo much!
I couldn't figure out how to choose just those characters because I hadn't designated them as anchored objects; that was throwing me, but I guess Indesign saw them as such.
Thanks again, you've saved me hours of work!
Sincerely,
Annette

Missing slide in table of contents

I have a slide in Adobe Captivate 6 that is clearly visible in my module, however I canot find it in the table of contents. What must I do to locate the slide in the table of contents? I have looked through all the slides in the table of contents and it is not there. I am running Captivate in Windows 7.
Darin

Hi Darin
If you added the slide after you first created the TOC, you need to reset the TOC by clicking a button. Look at the TOC editor and click the button shown below:

Table of Contents Section Formatting Issues

Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening in the Table of Contents? It seems that if I have more than 10 sections in a chapter that it pushes the info to the right side of the text box.
In section 10.10 all my text (for the title) is formatted to the left, and I can't figure out why the TOC is displaying it like this... pretty annoying...
Any help would be much appreciated.
Andrew

First off, thanks for the book K T, it's a great edition to my learning how to use iBooks Author, but it was no help. After playing around and becoming quite frustrated I started digging around in the the TOC I've figured out how to format the TOC a cross the entire book - getting rid of the formatting issue awonacott is experiencing. I too am (was) experiencing that TOC formatting issue. Here's what I did to rectify it:
1: Go into your TOC.
2. Go into any Section heading list and double click, then change the TOC to TOC Heading 1, 2, or 3.
For some reason the default TOC gets all wonky when you try to insert a section into an already created chapter. I was having this funny formatting happen to all sections of the iBook I'm creating, not just beyond the 10th section.
I refused to just deal with this crazy formatting, as I believe you should be able to add as many sections as you please without having to trim it down to fit within a 10 sections.
Anyways I hope this helps.
Semper Fidelis,
Tomas

Remove "Slide Title" text from table of contents?

Hi all,
Is there anyway to remove the text "Slide Title" when you publish a Table of Contents (ToC) from Captivate 8?
It seems I can remove/add the other text from the ToC (e.g. project name, title, etc.) but not the line that appears above all of the slides and the accompanying bookmark button/icon.
Any ideas?
Cheers,

Hi Lilybiri,
Ah thanks for the confirmation and reply. That's a shame but I'll just work around it.
Cheers,

Why are multiple slides under one table of contents button?

I'm using Captivate 8, and notice that when I preview my course, the table of contents buttons directly correspond with each slide but then after that, the remaining slides are lumped under one table of contents button. How can I fix this? In other words, when looking at the table of contents, it looks like my course only has 6 slides when in reality there's 30...many of which are lumped under the last button.

You have to scroll, they are not under one button at all.
Good practice is to group slides, then you'll see the hierarchy in the TOC and you are able to collapse all groups. That way the TOC will have a clean look, and the user can open a group to see the individual slides.

Table of Contents issue in 11.1.2.1

Has anyone seen an issue with a book table of contents when generated in PDF Format. 11.1.2.1
On the side panel where each page is displayed there is a Table of Contents page listed but when you click on the report it does not show up at all. It is the 1st report. No Table of Contents.
Thanks.
Judy

Hi Judy,
I've seen the following bug, which sounds similar, at a client and the issue was fixed with patch set 107:
12800944 – The table of contents does not display and the page numbering is incorrect in a Complete Book in PDF.
Other book bugs fixed in patch 107:
12916617 – The page numbering in a Complete Book in PDF is incorrect.
13071627 - If a Book has page size set to Legal/Ledger/A3/A4, the complete book PDF's page numbering and Book TOC's (Table of Contents) Mapping are wrong.
12802465 - Complete Book in PDF returns a blank page with dots in 11.1.2.1.
12916552 – The table of content links navigates to the wrong report in the Complete Book in PDF.
I don't think it requires other patches to be installed (essbase, APS, Foundation, etc) however it will require re-installation of FR Studio and reconfiguration of the FR Print Server.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Iain

I created a table of contents in Indesign CS4 exported it to a pdf format. Now having an issue in viewing it in full screen mode.

When I open the pdf document it is in full screen mode and when I click onto a table of content link it is full screen vertical but not full screen horizontal. How do I make it full screen both ways.

You are not making sense. Are you referring to the way the PDF is opened into your PDF reading application? If so, what has that to do with a 'table of contents'?
In any case, it seems not related to a problem with InDesign. Try the Acrobat forum instead.

Multiple Table of Contents

I am using Captivate 5 and I am creating a course which will essentially contain 3 different version inside of it, I'm wonderign if it is possible to have multiple Tables of Contents within a single course?
Thanks!

I ran into a similar issue. Mine was a broad topic with "subchapters", for want of a better term. I wanted my users to be able to jump around within topics as needed and the simple TOC didn't cut it. Plus I had several slides during my simulation that were about 1 sec in length so I had several slides named "Cont." on the TOC...not very pretty. My workaround was to create my subchapters as separate projects and then pulled them all together in the aggregator. It wasn't perfect but it was close. I've added the ability to create sub-TOCs to the feature request page. Maybe I should bribe the Captivate developers with cookies???
