I have automate page title set up in a document:

  • refer to image 01 Master showing its presence on the Master;
  • image 02 Pages 14-15 shows it working;
  • but starting on page 16 it nolonger functions - see image 03 Pages 16-17.

I cannot figure out what has happened.

Thanks in advance for assistance.

 

ps: I always check the "Email me when someone replies" but never receive an email. Why?

Hi @Michael J B:

 

As soon as I add content, the title appears as expected. I use variables for my chapter heads as you are doing, and I haven't run across this, but I always have content on the page.

Hi @Michael J B:

 

I would start by looking for a paragraph styled as a title but without content between (an empty ¶) where the running head is working on page 15 and when it stops working on page 16. If that isn't it, I'm happy to take a quick look at the file. You can put it on dropbox and post the link here (public) or click my avatar above this post, click Message and sent it to me directly (private).

 

I never use the email function on this forum so I can't answer that part of the question.

Hi Barb, I had a version of this which you responded to on June 29, 2022. Back then, as soon as text was added toa page the chapter head showed up. Now, this:

I have a chapter title header on the two pages of my master layout - see screen shot 01.

It shows up fine until page 19 where it does not show - see screen shot 02.

Instead I seem some kind of symbol - see screen shot 03.

 

What has happened ?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Michael J B:

 

It that heading on the empty page using the correct paragraph style? If that's not it, can you share the file with me again? You can put it on dropbox and post the link here (public) or click my avatar above this post, click Message and sent it to me directly (private).
