Liebe Community

Ich benötige ein Inhaltsverzeichnis, bei dem die Zahlen vor den Einträgen erscheinen. Die Zahlen sollen dabei rechtsbündig und der Text linksbündig dargestellt werden. Gibt es eine elegante Möglichkeit, dies umzusetzen? Eine mögliche Lösung wäre, einen Tabulator vor der Seitenzahl einzufügen. Allerdings kann ich im Inhaltsverzeichnis-Fenster nur Elemente zwischen dem Eintrag und der Seitenzahl einfügen, nicht jedoch davor. Hat jemand eine Idee, wie sich das anders realisieren lässt?

Vielen lieben Dank im Voraus!

Well, you do in fact need a character style for the page number because it's at a bigger point size and you need to apply a negative baseline offset to align the top of the page number with the top of the entry.

Then you need to set tab stops in the paragraph style for the entry: a right-justified tab to right-align the page numbers, and a normal (left-justified) tab for the entry.

In the TOC style window, in the 'Between Entry and Number' field, enter ^t^i (tab and indent-to-here).

Finally in the generated TOC you then need to insert a tab before each page number, i.e. at the start of each toc entry. In the GREP tab:

Find what: ^

Change to: \t

Och habe eine Suchen-Ersetzen-Routine geschaffen,die ein Ziffernleerzeiche vor die ersten Ziffern setzt. Einmal eingerichtet ist es nur ein Klick nach der aktualisierung eines IHVs.

That's a possibility, but works only with tabular digits. And you need to take three-digit numbers into account.

In the Table of Contents setup change the Page Number to Before Entry

Then youc an apply a Character Style to this entry .

For the Between Entry and Number is a ^t - but you can put anything in here

for a right indent tab use ^y

You can pick from the Drop Down menu

More info here - if need something specific let us know.

What do you need a tab for though?

You could add it by having a numbering in the bullets and numbering - don't include the number in the style - just the tab.

You could have a left indent

You could have the text frame for the TOC to have a left indent.

I'm just wondering why you need a tab? If you really need it then the bullets and numbering would do it automatically.

Eugene -- The initial tab is needed in order to right-align the page numbers. Bullets and numbering can't be used because the numbers are page numbers generated by the TOC, not by paragraph numbering.
