This is exactly what I was looking for. Most other tutorials on table of contents assume you understand paragraph styles and you explain this perfectly thank you
Just creating my first training manual using InDesign 2021. It needed a ToC so went on RUclips as many do looking for a tutorial on this. I find it easier to view and listen to learn. Your video is very good as it has good pace and demonstration of work through. Thanks so much.
My first assignment for my online print and web course is taking a table of contents from a magazine and duplicating it through indesign so this was extremely helpful
Thank you for this very helpful video! I am struggling a bit with the alignment of the numbers! My numbers aren't left aligned like yours, but stick to my TOC content to the right making it look untidy. Could you possibly tell me how to left align the text, and right align the corresponding page numbers please? Thanks so much!
Simplistic, as stated. Works great for chapters. subheadings and such that have no numbering associated with them. It becomes 5x more difficult when you have, for example, Chapter 1, subchapters 1.x+, subchapter 1.x.x+. The spacing in those numbers is NEVER equal to what is in the actual headings and is NOT easily figured out on how to align them next to the titles. It also should work for figure AND table references numbered as 1.x, 2.x, etc with the first numeral being the chapter number. and the second being the figure in the chapter.
Fantastic work. I have been trying to master this for a long time, but without any success, but this tutorial made it all clear. Thank you ever so much.
Thank you for your tutorial but I need help with my page numbers not showing up. I put all the paragraph styles necessary and the page numbers don’t show up.
Can you explain how you get the different chapter names in the footer? When I created a text box in my Parent, I couldn’t change the contents of it in my pages (because it’s in the master).
Just to clarify, does this automatically add the hyperlinks to the pages so that when someone clicks on the TOC entry (or page number) they are automatically directed to that page? Thank you.
Not "hyperlinks" exactly but yes they do if the interactive PDF is chosen. Note, as well, the level settings (1, 2, 3) are required for any epub export.
Hi. I was wondering how to get the style: Heading 1 .........page # the dots before the page #. So the dots leading from the heading to the page #. I'm not seeing that as an option. Thanks
You are a great teacher ! Every time I was looking how to do something with InD with was an unknown for me, your tutorials came and I leared ! Thank you so much for helping me in my reconversion ! If I can do something for you, just say it ;)

got a little bit confused because of the names you gave to the styles so had to rewatch it but really a helpful video that reduces a lot of time
This explains the styling, not the automatic content creation of the TOC?
Genia! Gracielaa!

Thank you for your tutorial but I need help with my page numbers not showing up. I put all the paragraph styles necessary and the page numbers don’t show up.
I'm trying to figure out how to align the numbers to the right using this method, but I'm having trouble.
same. have you figured it out?
@@maruubnd In the Table of Contents window, select Right Indent Tab in the 'Between entry and Number' dropdown.
I've found that the ^t is just a tab and ^y is the Right Indent Tab which makes it right aligned.
