What you see (mode: BV or CV) depends on what mode was opened last.
Change your view with the buttons
The TOC is simple, if you keep in mind the word: NESTED
Place the cursor on (do not highlight the text) the text to ALSO be used for the TOC entry, pull down the selection box (defaults to normal if the
insert point is not in a header) and select your header level.
I use:
H1 for the Book Title
H2 for Parts (if a book has ben divided that way)
H3 for Chapters (and other "sections" i want to appear)
IMHO using a "Word processor" to make an E-Pub results in a bloated mess of crappy coding.
There is still a lot Sigil does not do for you (it may require hand coding in CV), but it rarely
Sigil does not have controls to color text (Color?. It all appears as shades of gray on my reader). That is usually coded in the style sheet (If it is not: another example of sloppy code), where the color can be
adjusted in a single change.
