      Hi
      I want to create a table of contents but I want to apply it for specific words on paragraph.
      I mean just to see the specific words on the table of contents not all of the paragraph

      Can I use tabs settings with index panel?
      I mean to change numbers places?

      Just an idea: If you have headers that are filled automatically, they can depend on text with a certain character inside a paragraph. You can apply this character stye to just those words that you want to appear in your table of content. And then you can build your table of content with the header paragraph style. (You could also place a text frame with the respective outside n the slug area.)

      Going off Dieter’s suggestion, you could place these headers on a hidden/non-printing layer and use them to build the TOC.

      Nicole is right. That’s not more action than my suggestion, but you can do more with it.

      Hmm! … I’ll do it in 1 click with a simplistic Find/Replace! …

      After having applied a char style to the words in the paras the user wants to be catched in the TOC, supposing he will use char styles (eventually the same one) applied to the delimiter and the page number in the TOC settings, this (these) char style(s) containing something different by comparison to the para style applied in the TOC [for instance, a new “black-2” color], he’ll just need to play in the TOC story:

      Find: “Black-1” color
      Replace by: nothing

      Best,
