Re: New Topic Export
Please can you clarify. It might assist us if you can post the module, and we can export and see what is lacking.

Re: Feature Request: Subtopic Level No. equals No. of Tab ch
I put an example from the Church Fathers module although I have a module that I won't show yet which is similar in terms of the multi-level tree topic setup.malayangbiblia wrote:The Navigation section of MS Word replicates the tree-view although the actual topics on the pages themselves are not physically indented/tabbed.

As you can see, the tree topic from the module is replicated in the MS Word Navigation Pane but on the page itself, the outline levels (of indentations) are not the same. No matter how much level there is on the tree/navigation, it always shows up with no indentation in the MS Word document. Technically, there is no TAB character/s where its needed so readers can know if a topic/subject is under another subject or not.

Re: New Topic Export
In a Word document the Navigation pane follows along as a paragraph is clicked so a person knows where they are.

Re: New Topic Export
That is fine on a PC, but what happens when you print the pages? Just like when you print sermon notes.JG wrote:In a Word document the Navigation pane follows along as a paragraph is clicked so a person knows where they are.

Re: New Topic Export
Here's an example that I wish to see when I export a multi-level topic tree from theWord. This is one of my topical books taken from the book of Proverbs.JG wrote:what do you see in a printed book?

Re: New Topic Export
Perhaps if each topic level was brought in as a different heading level in MS Word. (The seem to be under normal for now) Such as Heading Level 1, Heading Level 2, etc. then one can format the document to their desire by changing the MS Word heading style. If one wants indented or not, etc.

Re: New Topic Export
This makes sense for sermon notes (I do this also). But when you print a book the length of the pages printed will increase as the indents increase.
