Exclamation Word 2013's Navigation Pane does not show "level 4" headings, even when I click "Show Heading 4"

I am running Word 2013 on my macbook pro, running OS X El Capitan, v. 10.11.6.



Problem: I have a document that utilizes the default style Headings 1-4. When I open the Navigation Pane, it only lists the first three levels of headings. That is, it only shows Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3.

This does not change when I right click on a heading in the Navigation Pane and select "Show Heading 4." I have closed and re-opened the document to no avail. Also, I am positive that Heading 4 is actually set up to show up has heading in the Table of Contents because I put in a Table of Contents that displays all levels of headings, including Heading 4 headings.

To be clear, this is not a problem with the Table of Contents of not showing Heading 4 headings; rather, this is a problem of the Navigation Pane not showing Heading 4 headings.

Please Note that the following "solved" problem does not work: https://www.msofficeforums.com/word/...ee-levels.html

Default Update

I would have edited my original post, but I could not figure out how to (despite the fact that I did edit the post two weeks ago).

So, I have found the problem--kind of. So what I left out of my original post was that the text styled as heading 4 (TOC level 4) appears in the body of a paragraph. That is, they are in-line headings. The following is example of what I mean; the bolded text is my heading 4.
i. These rights were extended beyond the criminal context in Boddie v. Connecticut (1971), requiring the state to pay indigent’s fees and costs in a divorce case. The court noted the importance of marriage, and that in some cases resort to courts was the only legitimate means to resolve disputes.
What was, and still is, happening is that the heading 4 style conflicts with the normal paragraph style. And the normal text style overrides my heading 4 style and does not allow it to show in the TOC.

NOTE: In the original post I said level 4 was showing up in the TOC and not in the Navigation Pane. This is partially correct, I noticed that the only level 4 headings showing up in the TOC were ones that did not appear in a paragraph but were actually their own, self-standing paragraphs.

So after researching the problem, I came across the "style separator." Which does exactly what its name implies: it allows the user to have a single paragraph contain multiple styles. This would solve my problem. However, it appears that this is not available on mac, which is very unfortunate, seeing that it seems to simply put nonprinting, paragraph character before and after the selected text.

My updated question: Is it true that the style separator option is not available on mac's running Word 2013? If so, is there any way to manually separate the styles? (I could not insert a nonprinting, paragraph symbol between the two styles without actually creating separate paragraphs).
