the index, or you can add a new entry specifically for the cross-reference. Use the Index
palette (View > Show Index) to create cross-references.
Creating a cross-reference for a new index entry
To create a cross-reference for a new index entry:
1
Place the Text Insertion bar anywhere in text (it doesn't matter where you place it because
page numbers will not be listed for this entry).
2
Enter text for the entry in the Text field of the Index palette.
3
Use the Sort As and Level controls as you would to create any other index entry.
4
Choose Cross-Reference from the Scope drop-down menu. Choose the type of
cross-reference you want from the drop-down menu: See, See also, or See herein.
5
Specify the index entry being cross-referenced by entering text in the field or clicking an
existing entry in the list.
6
Click the Add button. Expand the entry to see the cross-reference text.
Creating a cross-reference for an existing index entry
To create a cross-reference for an existing index entry:
1
Place the Text Insertion bar anywhere in text (it doesn't matter where you place it because
page numbers will not be listed for this entry).
2
Select an entry in the Entries list. The entry is automatically placed in the Text field.
3
Click the Edit button on the Index palette, double-click the entry, or select the entry
and display the context menu.
4
Choose Cross-Reference from the Scope drop-down menu. Choose the type of
cross-reference you want from the drop-down menu: See, See also, or See herein.
5
Specify the index entry being cross-referenced by entering text in the field or clicking an
existing entry in the list.
To see the cross-reference text in the Entries list along with the page number references,
expand the entry.
When you build an index, cross-references immediately follow page number references.
They are formatted with the character style sheet specified in the Index Preferences dialog
box (Edit > Preferences > Index). If you specify Entry's Style, the cross-reference will use
the same style sheet as the entry it follows. Using the Style drop-down menu (Index
palette) to specify a character style sheet for a cross-reference will override the style sheet
you specified in the Index Preferences dialog box. The text you enter in the
Cross-Reference field will have that style sheet applied; however, the style sheet will not
be applied to the "See," "See also," or "See herein" part of the cross-reference.
