mini-TOC levels are inconsistent

[LisaLiel]

When I insert a mini-TOC proxy, I set the TOC depth to one more than the header level of the topic (I only have one header level in each topic).

In PDF targets, I get just the children of the given topic. In HTML targets, I get the children and grandchildren.

Why the inconsistency, and can I fix it?

This could be because the mini-toc proxy works differently between print and online outputs.

The lt;dr is that for print, the toc depth represents the number of heading levels from the heading immediately before the mini-toc proxy. For online the number represents the number of levels below the current topic in the toc structure.

The Creating a Mini-TOC topic explains it quite well, I think. Have a look at the "How It Works" section.

So if we want the same behavior in print and web, we have to put in two mini-TOCs and condition them? Seems like a bug to me.

If you set

Code: Select all

mc-heading-level: 0

on a heading type in your Print CSS, then it shouldn't show up in any TOCs
