TOC basics
About TOCsThe
table of contents is a hierarchy of the folders, topics, and any
subfolders in the Project Manager. RoboHelp creates books from custom
folders and pages from the topics in these folders. Any topics not
saved in custom folders appear as pages at the first level in the
table of contents.
You can reorder books and pages after you create the table of
contents.
Create TOCsAutomatically create a table of contents based on the chapter
layout defined in the Project Manager pod. If you automatically
create a table of contents, books and pages are sorted alphabetically.
In Project Manager, right-click the Table of Contents
folder, and select New Table Of Contents.  If the
project has many topics, collapse the Project Files folder first
to view the Table Of Contents folder.
Specify a name for the TOC.
(Optional) Select Copy Existing Table of Contents and browse
for an existing TOC file (.hhc) to create the TOC from an available
TOC.
Click OK. RoboHelp opens the Table Of Contents pod.
In the Table Of Contents pod, click the Auto-Create TOC button .
Select an option in the Auto-Create TOC dialog box: - Delete Current TOC Before Creating New
- Removes books and pages before automatically creating the
table of contents. If this option is deselected, existing books
and pages are included in the table of contents.
