If you have a text with the table of contents markers in it as you want them, you can then generate to create the actual table. Before beginning the generation process, you should save the file. If you don't save the file, the table of contents will not reflect the changes since the previous save.
To generate a table of contents:
| 1 | Have the document or manuscript you want to generate for on screen. |
| 2 | Click Tool, Table of Contents, Generate. |
| 3 | Make any changes you want to the appearance of the table of contents. They will be reflected in the "dummy" document on the right so you can get a general idea of what it will look like. |
| • | Overall Style will, as the name implies, give some general style adjustments. Simply click on which you want to use. |
| • | You can choose whether or not to Include Subheadings, and the number of levels to include by using the labeled checkbox and slider. You can also choose to only include subheadings and how they will be aligned. |
| • | The style of the chapter number (Arabic, spelled out, etc.) their alignment, whether to have a period after can be selected as well, what words to have for them, and which subheadings page numbers will be listed for and other settings are available in the various checkboxes. |
| • | Clicking Title/Intro will take you to a new document window where you can type in the text that will be at the top, e.g. the words "Analytical Table of Contents" or whatever you want. |
| • | Overall Alignment will set the left offset of the entire table. |
| 4 | Click OK to generate the table of contents. |
After generating, you will have an option to adjust the style, if you want to make any immediate changes. See Table of Contents: Adjust Style.
