Reply To: Make TOCs work for presentation style documents

Hello,
I sometimes have to deal with tables or lists spanning multiple pages so the heading level one would be something like “7.1 Status of activities (page 2 of 10)” and the subheading could be “Restructuring of sales EMEA” so is used to name the current content of the table. This wouldn’t work with running header and a text variable that clearly is the job of a script (or manual labour). As I’m strongly considering rewriting my script-solution I wonder if there is an easy way for simple document structures that only need help for those edge-cases.
We are a small consulting company of 20 people and use ID since day one for nearly all our documents except simple letters and AI for all graphics related stuff. A solution for these TOCs have to be as easily usable for everyone like the standard TOC function of ID preferably without dealing with multiple formats for the same thing.
I didn’t publish any of my scripts yet as most of them are used for very specific workflows together with our templates and styles (everything – variables, comments, style names – in german language only ;) but for a rewrite would probably open this up GPL’d in an git repo.
