Table of contents with/without details

[Zanza]

Hello !!

I would like to put, in the table of contents, "contents" different from that in the text.



for example:

In the text I've:

Chapter IV
Life and works

in the table of contents:

4 - Life and works .................... pag. 100

whitout the field "Chapter" (the change of number from latin to arabic is a secondary issue).
Is there anyone who can help me ?

You could use a TC field to display
IV Life and Works ...................
It might help to use http://www.gmayor.com/table_of_contents_addin.html which makes the task easier. Select the IV and the following line and use Mark TOC Entry. IV to 4 may be a step too far to achieve automatically, but you can edit the inserted field. e.g. { TC "4 -Life and works" \l "1" }

In the body of the document, you can use two paragraph styles, one that provides the numbering ("Chapter IV" in your example) and another that provides the text ("Life and Works").

In the TOC, you include only the second paragraph style which will then be unnumbered. To fix that, you add the "Chapter #" number format to the corresponding TOC style.
