Question

Create TOC in structured FrameMaker

I'm looking at a manual made in structured FrameMaker and I am a bit out of my league here.

The book file holds a number of TOC's. I'm trying to figure out how these TOC's are put together. I can create a stand alone TOC by defining elements to include, but the TOC file I generate seems to break the structure in the book. And I am not able to insert an element in the books structure. Trying to so just doesn't call up the elements dialogue. Anybody who can point me in the right direction?

    Auto-generated TOC's are always generated as unstructured documents.
    To change the appearance of the TOC's, use paragraph or character formatting instead of element tags.

      Thanks @yatani These TOC's are structured, though. So I guess they are not auto generated? Are there any other ways of generating a structured TOC using elements?

      If you already have a structured TOC's , you can import formatting and element definitions into your new TOC's .
      However, applying elements to the TOC's  is a manual process.
