I just upgrade to Flare 2017 and I was happy to see the new topic title/TOC synchronization feature!

What works - when I create a new topic and drag it into the TOC, the TOC entry is shown in blue and contains the H1 test.

What doesn't work - when I open that topic and modify the H1, the TOC does ...

There's about 3000 small support files that I want to exclude.

<tr><td>Data1</td><td>Data2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Data3</td ...

page-break-after: avoid;
}
