Option to specify heading level when auto-generating TOC

PubFut · Yesterday, 07:04 AM

I use automatization to create my EPUB TOCs which works fine in general. However, I could not find an option to specify the heading levels to be included in the TOC as it can be specified when a TOC is generated by the corresponding menu item.

Is there a way to do so as well when creating the TOC in an automated process or could this option be added to one of the future releases?

You can always use the Sigil built in tool to create the TOC, and then use the TOC Editor to control nesting and levels. But since building a toc is normally only done once, after the epub is fully edited, doing fine controls via an automation list is just not worthwhile in general in my opinion. You can always create a plugin to do what you want and add that to your automation list.
