Question

No heading 1 in generated TOC

Hi everyone,

When I generate a Word document (Word 2013) from RoboHelp 11, headings 1 are missing from my TOC, and TOC only includes headings 2 and 3.

Could anyone help me solve this issue?

Thanks!

Note the Maintain Heading Levels option in the layout. See if that fixes it.

Peter, thank you for answering so fast! Unfortunately, this did not solve my issue. Maybe I did not state it very clear, so I'll attach the screenshots this time. The first image shows TOC I get after generating the document from RoboHelp (without heading 1), and the second image shows the TOC I'd like to have after generating the doc (with heading 1), but I need to update TOC manually for heading 1 to show up. (References > Table of Contents > Custom Table of Contents). So, in the second image - Sprint cycle is heading 1 that is missing from TOC.

Yes, you're right, Sprint cycle is the book title in my project and it does not appear in the generated doc.

To sum up, the problem is that the book title Sprint cycle (on the image) or Sample project (in the project I sent you) does not show up in my TOC in the generated Word document. And it does not depend on whether the option Maintain HTML Heading Levels is selected or not.


Does Sprint Cycle show under Chapter Layout in the dialog below?

I think that offline you said it works for some authors and not others, have you compared their dialogs with yours? I can't think of a setting that would cause this but it's worth checking.
