Getting Table of Contents to work with bullet-point text

[Patrick Garofallou]

In the prior page formatting, you could change the text type from 'Normal text' to a heading style, then use that heading style to filter for the 'Table of Contents' filter. In the new page format, it is not possible to change the bullet-point text type.

Is there a way around this via a different 'Table of contents' configuration? i.e. only list the top-level bullet-points?

Or is there maybe a better macro for what I am trying to accomplish?

I'm trying to do the same thing. Doesn't appear to be a way yet?

Hi Patrick

Are you saying you would like the bullet points to appear in the Table of Contents?

Thanks, Liam

Sort of. I want the top-level bullet point to appear as clickable in the table of contents. For example

• This is a top-level bullet
  • This is a sub-bullet
  • Another sub-bullet
• Another top-level bullet
  • Another sub-bullet

In the table of contents, I would see:

This is a top-level bullet

Another top-level bullet

This was previously possible by changing the text style of your top-level bullet points to something like Heading 4, then using the 'minimum heading level' and 'maximum heading level' to filter only for that heading. In the new type of pages, the text style for bullet points is locked so this solution is no longer valid.

Looking for a workaround or alternative to that. I am sure there is probably a better way to accomplish what I'm doing, and I realize I can just remove the top-level bullet from the bullet points to still use my solution, but was hoping to keep everything in bullet points.

I was hoping I'd read your query wrongly, but I haven't.  I can't think of a way of doing it unfortunately, but hopefully someone can.
