Table Of Contents
DOCUMENT CONSTRUCTION
To locate a particular line in the active list, enter a word from that line in the
palette’s Find field. The list in the palette scrolls to the first appearance of that word
in the list.
To jump to a particular paragraph, double-click it in the Lists palette. The window
scrolls to that paragraph’s location in the layout.
Building lists
To create a TOC (or other type of list) in the layout, place the text insertion point
where you want the list to go, then click Build in the Lists palette. The list is built
automatically. The style sheets you selected for the list in the Format As drop-down
menu (New List dialog box) are applied automatically.
If the text in the document is on the pasteboard, then a dagger character (Mac OS X)
or the characters “PB “ (Windows) displays next to the text in the built list instead of
a page number.
Updating lists
The Lists palette is not automatically updated as you work. When you make
changes to text, you must update the list to be sure it is current. Clicking the
Update button in the Lists palette scans the document for list items, and rebuilds a
list in the Lists palette.
To update a list that you have already flowed into a text box, select the box, click
Update to make sure the list is up-to-date, and then click Build. The application
detects that there is already a copy of the list in the layout and displays an alert
asking if you want to Insert a new copy of the list or Replace the existing version.
To update the existing list, click Replace.
Last Line Indent in Table of Contents
Prior to QuarkXPress 2019 (v15.1), while building Table for Contents (TOC), it was
not possible to define an indent spacing specifically for page numbers. As a result, if
the Table of Contents contained multi-line chapter/section headings, the page
number would wrap below the heading.
