Story order in dynamic TOC?
hi. i'm learning use table of contents function in id. i'm having trouble there multiple stories on single page (for example, section header @ top of page that's separate text block longer running text below). how can force order of level 1 , level 2 entries proper order?
hoping explains why seeing incorrect order issue in toc:
- table of contents text sourced separate stories on page appear top bottom, left right, if of headings start further 'left', appear earlier in toc.
- additionally toc text threaded stories appear before headings, if headings appear on later pages.
to avoid happening there number of things attempt:
- thread frames possible, don't use 'loosely' placed headers
- where have multiple short stories on page it's more difficult, esp if magazine style. can try , cheat making frames wider , using text indent position text left/right, indesign uses 'top bottom' approach , doesn't consider text starts 'further right' must appear later.
hope helps,
cari
