Table of Contents Format Details Dialog Box
The Table of Contents Format Details dialog box displays when you click the Details button in the Table of Contents Format dialog box, accessed when you click the Format button in the Properties area for a table of contents format object. It provides options by which you can set indent levels and numbering in the table of contents.
The Table of Contents Format Details dialog box contains the following options:
• Level to edit - Selects the level for which you wish to set numbering and indent options.
• Numbered - Specifies that table of contents entries are to be numbered at the selected level. If this option is selected, the associated Align number, Align at, Follow number with, Tab to and Indent following lines fields are made available and can be modified.
Note that title element whose content makes up the entries on this level must have its numbering option activated for this option to have any effect. If the title is not numbered, the first line of the table of contents entry is left-aligned at the position defined in the Align at field or, if Follow number with is set to Tab, at the location specified in the Tab to field. Additional lines are aligned at the location specified in Indent following lines.
◦ Include label with number - Specifies whether the numbers for entries in this level of the table contents include the label specified for the source division title element in the Division Title Number dialog box, or just the number. The default is Label plus number.
◦ Align number - Specifies whether the entry number is aligned to the Right or the Left.
◦ Align at - Specifies the horizontal position at which the numbers of entries should be aligned. If the title is not numbered, the first line of the table of contents entry is left-aligned to the position defined in this field. See the note at the end of this description for input options.
◦ Follow number with - Sets the amount of space that appears between the title number and the title text in the entry. The available options are:
▪ Single Space: adds a single, non-breaking space (the default)
▪ Em-Space: adds an em-space
▪ Tab: adds the amount of space specified in the Tab to field
▪ No Space: places the title text immediately adjacent to the number
◦ Tab to - Specifies the position at which title text starts after the title number, used when the Follow number with field is set to Tab. See the note at the end of this description for input options.
◦ Indent following lines - Specifies the amount by which to indent following lines if the first line of the entry content wraps. To align the text in the first and subsequent lines, set this to the same value as set in the Tab to field. See the note at the end of this description for input options.
• Not numbered - Specifies that table of contents entries are not to be numbered at the selected level. If this option is selected, the associated Indent first line, and Indent following lines fields are made available and can be modified.
◦ Indent first line - Sets the amount by which the first line of a table of contents entry is to be aligned. See the note at the end of this description for input options.
◦ Indent following lines - Sets the amount by which subsequent lines of table of contents entry are to be aligned, if the entry wraps onto additional lines. See the note at the end of this description for input options.
