ChapNum-PageNum in TOC?

Post by MarinaMichaels »

I am creating a template for PDF output of our reports. Our page numbering style is ChapNum-PageNum (e.g., page 3 in chapter 6 would be numbered 6-3), and I can get the pages in the chapters to properly number that way. How can I have the page numbers in the TOC (generated using the proxy) to also use that numbering style? Thank you for any help offered.

Hi Marina, topic http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... ber#p85304 seems to discuss a similiar problem and a way to (possibly) accomplish this.
Using Flare 10.2 and Flare 11 on Win 7

I haven't tested this yet, but this is what MadCap tech support sent me:

"In the TOC properties dialog for the entries which are chapter breaks, select Reset to: {chapnum} - {n} and Format:Text."

I also asked, "How can I include a list of figures and a separate list of tables in my PDF output? I have separate paragraph styles for figures and tables." The answer, which I also haven't tested, was "To do this, we can insert two list of proxies into the topic, one for tables and one for figures. If we want to style them differently, we can create style classes of MadCap|listOfProxy in the stylesheet and apply them to the proxies. To learn more about this, please refer to the following page in Flare's online help manual: http://webhelp.madcapsoftware.com/flare ... Tables.htm."
