The resulting TOC is missing Chapter 1 and Chapter 4
Am I doing something wrong here? |
It sounds correct. I vaguely remembers something about a missing chapter in the TOC, but that was in a previous version. It should work fine of course. Also, the cover being present or not cannot make a difference with regards to the TOC, that is independent of each other.

The I loaded the XML ruleset from your homepage and all is working as expected.
Comparing the two XML files shows for the tool-converted XML:

You are correct, you cannot edit the rules if the document is in the DOC format. Only DOCX and XML can be edited. You say that you converted the doc to XML, is that with the button in the settings? The strange thing is, the exact same conversion process is used to create the internal XML file when a DOCX is used. I will take a look at it, it is clear what the problem is, but not how it is caused.

Turns out that the manually inserted ChapterBreak ist translated to
Code:
<p><hr class="sigil_split_marker" /></p>
while the ones inserted before heading stand alone.
Code:
<hr class="sigil_split_marker" /><h2 id="TOC_0_3" >Chapter 4</h2>

Ok, that sounds simple enough to fix...

And let me not forget to thank you for this incredible pice of software!

Yes, I am. I hope to have a beta of the library later this week. Then the work will start to incorporate the library into the Tools.
And, you are very welcome!
