Re: [libreoffice-users] Add a bookmark to TOC

Hi Michael,Thanks for your response. It's getting late here, so I will have
        to take  look at your recommendation in a few hours time.Based on my initial reading of 
your recommendation, I think the
        Documentation Team would welcome your contributions.BTW I am subscribed to the mailing list 
so it is unnecessary to
        email me directly.RegardsDaveFrom:</b>

Instead of

          building the Table of contents by "paragraph style", create a
          Index of type "Table of Contents" using "Index 
marks".https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CArlrl1zeQAWGxWrGVbxmtVdgNNNjmz9/view?usp=sharingIn the 
example I insert the mark after the first word (or
          number) of the new chapter, to prevent it from getting moved
          or erased if someone later works on vertical spacing with hard
          returns. To create new hidden entries 


* Set
                the cursor to each location you want the TOC to point
                to. Then in the Insert Menu -Index and Table of
                Contents -Index Entry
* Index type : Table of Contents
* Entry : (text you want to appear on the TOC page)
* level : if you want to style some entries differently
                set them to a different level, then assign the alternate
                style in the TOC setup.
* Each time you click OK, you create an entry that
                matches the field values. If you have fields set to
                display you can see a light grey block.  
* Extra entries may be deleted with the backspace or
                delete key as a character in the paragraph. 
* Set the cursor to
                the point you want the TOC to appear. Create a TOC as
                normal, but choose Index marks instead of 'Additional
                Styles.'

First,
          I do understand how to create a      TOC based on heading levels, but what I am trying to
          work out is      how to add some kind of flag/marker (I am using the term
          bookmark)      to a paragraph in order to have it appear as the first
          entry in a      TOC.To illustrate with a hypothetical example: An author
          wishes to add      a 1 paragraph dedication on a page at the start of a
          book and have      the word "Dedication" appear as the first entry in the
          TOC, but      does not want the word to appear on the dedication page
          in the      form of a heading.It would be much appreciated if
          someone could point me to a source      of information about this, because my own 
searches have
          uncovered      nothing.TIADave--To unsubscribe e-mail
