Printing nested TOC

Post by henkjans »

Hello,
I'm looking for a setting to print all nested (underlying) paragraphs of a TOC chapter.
For example (see picture) when selecting chapter "GSE Ink manager; de totaaloplossing" in the TOC, I want to print all chapter belong paragraphs.
So both paragraphs "Uw eigen kleuren maken" and "Hergebruik van restinkten" are printed as well (see red box).

Now I can only print paragraph by paragraph using the print icon at the bottom of a paragraph (see blue circle).

The Print functionality is working as designed, so I suspect the only way you can do this is to include both those topics in your main topic.

Thx. ChoccieMuffin
but that would mean I have to redesign my complete project :(
I thought that somehow common use of a TOC is to right click a chapter and to choose print only the topic or all underlying topics as well.
Pity.

The CHM help viewer has this feature, but no other help system I have seen offers this.

ok, thanks devjoe
I contacted Madcap about this and they admit that this question is asked more often.
It is passed through to the engineers dept. of MC, they will see to it.
In the meanwhile I create a .pdf of the whole project, to use aside the Help.
