Is there a way to only choose to make a TOC of the main header in a page?

Neman - 2020-11-23

A possible font colour fix as per Omer that worked for me on my version of OneNote 2016 16.0.13328.20350, oddly named "Version 2010" and "OneNote for Microsoft 365":
----
This is a bug in OneNote. They fixed it in a newer version. Depending on what version you have, you might be able to switch to that new version by setting a registry key (see below). The alternative to that is to wait until the new build is deployed or don’t use light text colors in tables.
Registry key to create:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\OneNote
                Name: OverrideVersion
                Type: REG_DWORD
                Value: 1
---
Obviously you take your life into your hands when editing the Registry. Back up everything - EVERYTHING - make your will, etc. and don't do any of these things to be safest.

I have tables on my page where the header font is bold and white. Every single time I run TOC in Current Page, the header font changes from white to grey. No exception.

So far, this doesn't seem to affect any other text on my page, but it's all default-coloured, i.e. text is black, headings are bley, and so forth.

I am running OneNote 2016 on desktop and TOC in Current Page is not responding, please fix thank you!

Wayne The IT Guy - 2020-09-08

There seems to be an issue with the TOC in Current Page.
The links created only works on the desktop version. It does not work on the iOS version.

Melissa: OneNote for Windows 10 doesn't support addins. You would need to go back to OneNote 2016 to continue using macros

Melissa - 2020-06-23

I loved using this TOC macro in OneNote 2016. Now I am using OneNote for Windows 10 and this TOC macro does not work in it. Does anyone know how I can get TOC to work in OneNote for Windows 10?

John - 2019-11-04

TOC removes the header numbering. Can this be added as an option?

Gab Loranger - 2019-02-13

I'm having an issue with this macro I love the idea of being able to create a table of contents within the page. However, when I run the macro it changes all the font colors to a lighter color. I believe it might an issue as I use the black theme macro on all pages with white text ofc. Don't know if I'm doing something wrong and I could prevent this happening. please comment if anyone has figured out a solution to this problem.

Thanks for creating this for individuals and organized their notebooks!

RAM - 2018-09-26

THANK YOU. The TOC functionality is great!

jianli - 2018-09-03

My font will become very small when I use it,and the font is chinese.I tried to look at the code and found that I could not find the syntax related to this situation.Maybe it only has problems with Chinese?

Jon Olsen - 2018-08-09

Doesn't work.

Tried it once and it worked beautifully!! Tried again on same page, new page, deleted entire notebook and tried again, different type of page etc... didn't work every again.

What gives?!

Omer Atay - 2018-07-24

Joseph: It looks like this is a bug in the web version of OneNote. I will report to them.

sullivan.andrew: Unfortunately currently macros cannot create list numbers.

sullivan.andrew - 2018-07-23

Really appreciate your work. Is there any way that the TOC could include list numbers?

Joseph - 2018-07-23

Awesome tool! If possible, could these links be modified to work in the web version of OneNote as well?

Jana - 2018-06-22

Hi, I love this feature. Could you also make the link clickable in OneNote Web?

Khalil - 2018-05-21

The TOC is being generated but none of the link actually work. Is there an issue on my end?

Omer Atay - 2018-04-24

Nate Kaemingk: Updated the macro to fix this issue. You should be able to just run the macro again and it will update the Back to Top links. Links get broken when the page copied in OneNote, there is no way around it.

Nate Kaemingk - 2018-01-03

EA5512 has a slight bug with relative vs absolute links. If I copy the notebook over to a new page all of the links go back to the original page, not the page I'm on.

This can be fixed by re-running the macro... but unfortunately the macro doesn't refresh the "Back to Top" links even if the TOC content was updated to work for the page it's on. All of the "back to top" links still go to the original page. So the true fix is to run this twice, once with "back to top" unchecked to delete all of the "back to top" links, then again with "back to top" option checked which rebuilds.

I should not have to jump through this many hoops to copy a page with a page specific TOC.

Omer Atay - 2017-12-17

AJ/Manu: Updated this macro to refresh the TOC in the current page if it already exists

Manu - 2017-12-14

This macro definitely adds great value to the OneNote.

Update with two suggestions as mentioned by "AJ - 2017-09-26" would be great and ease working on documents which are long and undergo frequent updates.

Craig - 2017-11-21

Very useful! It would be great if this could also use the custom styles .

[I'm assuming this would require the script to search for text with the same formatting as the custom style, unless custom styles uses custom tags behind the scenes]

AJ - 2017-09-26

I am slowly falling in love with this. The ToC is great.
Just two minor things
a) Would love to see an option to quickly update the TOC (if I leave the ToC at the top and untouched, one click update would belovely)
b) I am starting to get very annoyed by the "Popup" that asks me about "Back to Top links". Can I set that to remember my selection somehow or not ask me every single time
Since, I find myself deleting and then recreating the ToC a fair bit on the pages that I am actively working on.

Love your work. I am actually waiting for then it prompts me so I can purchase it (I know it'll happen :-)

Best!

Omer Atay - 2017-09-15

Freddy: Please send a page that has the issue to support@getonetastic.com

Freddy - 2017-09-15

On some pages the TOC can't be created. An error "The ink can't be inserted" occurs.
Can't figure out the reason. Already deleted all formats before defining the headers which do not contain ink/handwriting.

Sparks In Texas - 2017-07-15

Is it possible to create TOC at the top of the page using tags instead of headings?

Or is it possible to find/replace a specific tag with a heading?

Or, find/replace a specific word with a heading?

When I'm typing during class it is too hard to click CTRL-ALT-1 or CTRL-ALT-2 and yet I need a TOC at the top of each page so I can quickly scan pages to find information. Right now I type ttt1 or ttt2 and then use your "search & tag" to replace with a TOC1 or TOC2 tag. However, I can't get those to the top of the page to create a TOC because "tag summary for specific tag" only works at the section level.

XRumerTest - 2017-05-10

Hello. And Bye.

sumanthmadivala - 2017-04-30

Please add the logic to auto-update or even manually update the TOC.
Its not there right now!!

WetHat - 2017-04-15

I just found that in the new version of the macro the problem is fixed. The faulty version of the macro was using the QueryObjects function which does NOT return the paragraphs in document order in some cases. The newest version of the macro uses nested loops instead of QueryObjects

WetHat - 2017-04-15

The Table of Contents has the wrong order if the page content is indented for example like so:
Heading 1
       Some text
       Heading 2
           Some more text
The TOC comes out as:
Table of Contents
     Heading 2
Heading 1

Hyperlinks not working

Anonymous - 2017-03-13

Thanks Omer. It is so nice to see such prompt reply to queries here. Great Job.

Omer Atay - 2017-03-12

Prep: You need to use the built-in heading styles named Heading 1 through Heading 6 from the ribbon.

Prep - 2017-03-11

Hello ,
I am new to Macros. I downloaded Onetastic and m able to use one calendar.I dont know how to use TOC. Can anyone provide a link /info on how to use it ?
I created a headlines with # and Subheadlines with ## but that doesnt seem to create TOC after I hit TOC tab on my ribbon.
Please Help.

PeterB - 2017-03-11

OK, thanks Omer, I understand. The regenration is a pain when it concerns a lot of pages, but I'll have to live with that.
The only other thing is that, if I have the "Back to Top" links too, regenerating a TOC with the BtT links means each header on the page will then have 2 BtT's: a dead one & a Live one. :-(

BTW, do you know if Microsoft intends to fix the bug you mentioned?

Omer Atay - 2017-03-05

PeterB: This is a OneNote bug, so can't be fixed on Onetastic side. You would need to regenerate the TOC after moving .

PeterB - 2017-03-05

I just moved a section from 1 notebook to another notebook. Each page in the original section had a "TOC in Current Page". But after the move the links do not work anymore !! With a different section I tried copying to another notebook to see if that would make any difference, but not so.
So whether you move or copy a section with its pages to another notebook destroys the "TOC in Current Page" links.
Can this be fixed?

Kun - 2017-02-24

Hi Omer,

Thanks for your tool, it saved my huge amount of time.
However, as I usually add more information in the same page, is it possible to add a function to update the TOC?
Currently, if I launch the tool in the second time, it will only add one more TOC on the top of page.

Many thanks,

Kun

Dan - 2017-02-13

Thank you So Much  Omer,

You trully are a good guy!
Yay it worked  -  now  I can put a # any where I need and like magic it will make a TOC for me :)

I had 50 headings 1 in one page  - that really upset me when I had to do it manually one by one.

Quick one the back to top link does not work - it does not go back to top  im not sure why :(

Omer Atay - 2017-02-12

Dan: Read your macro log which should say something like:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Set its indent based on the heading style
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$Inserted_Paragraph.indent = (String_Substring($Paragraph.style, 1, 1) - 1)
Evaluating expression: $Paragraph.style
Value: <empty>
Evaluating expression: String_Substring($Paragraph.style, 1, 1)
Value:  (string)
Error while running macro: Macro contains an error

'-' operator requires operands to be of type Numeric
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here the macro is trying to set the indent of the TOC entry based on its heading level and this expression is being evaluated:
    String_Substring($Paragraph.style, 1, 1) - 1
$Paragraph.style is empty so String_Substring returns empty string. So the expression that is evaluated is:
    "" - 1
This expression cannot be evaluated because you cannot subtract 1 from an empty string. As the error reads: '-' operator requires operands to be of type Numeric

Previously the macro was finding paragraphs that have heading style. For them $Paragraph.style would be something like "h3". If we evaluate that expression again;
    String_Substring($Paragraph.style, 1, 1) - 1
$Paragraph.style is "h3" so String_Substring returns "3". So the expression that is evaluated is:
    "3" - 1
which is valid because string "3" can be implicitly converted to numeric type of value 3.

In your case you probably don't need to set the indent for the TOC entry if you don't have any heading levels.

Dan - 2017-02-12

Hi Omer,

It said operand requires a "-"

I could not understand it all

This is yours I only chnaged the #
I really need this as i have sooo many headings and the page is long , please help thank you

Omer Atay - 2017-02-11

Dan: This macro checks $Paragraph.style to see if it starts with "h". Heading styles are h1 through h6. You could probably change that to check if $Paragraph.text contains # instead.

Dan - 2017-02-11

Hi Omer,
is it possible i can Make TOC out of all the paragraphs that contain a #
instead of headings?

I paste from word and all the heading 1 gets lost then i have to manually apply it in one note and i have so many pages :(

Thanks for any help :)

Hi, Omer.

Create a directory each time, will not cover the original directory.This can be perfect?
Also, I'd like to add a point in front of the directory. But I don't know how to set up.
Such as
* test1
* test2
(Star instead of a dot, or can be customized)

My English is very poor, it is the result of machine translation.Please forgive me.

Thank you

I installed the new version on 15 Aug, and find now that when I delete an old TOC from a page, and want to run the new macro on that same page, it does not work i.e. nothing happens. It does work when I create a totally new page.
Any ideas?

kalaga1 - 2016-08-19

Like this really useful macro a lot!

Meanwhile looks like when it got upgraded now level 3 and above headings get treated as level 2. How does one get all headings like before?
It creates:
Heading 1
  Heading 2
  Heading 3

Instead of:
Heading 1
  Heading 2
    Heading 3

Paranam Kid - 2016-08-17

Omer, thanks a lot !! :-)

Hi Omer!
Thank you for your fast response! I checked as you described, and I found the Version 2.18.4 !
It might have to do with the admin-rights on this Computer. I'll re-check and give you a Feedback.

Omer Atay - 2016-07-31

Bernhard: You can check the version by going to Tools > Options > Addins then note the path of Onetastic.dll. Then find the file and right click on it, then go to Details tab and find the version. I will add an easier way to find the version number. It is possible that you installed the wrong bitness (32 vs 64 bit) and the older version is still being loaded.

Bernhard - 2016-07-31

Hi,
After download and doubleclick, it tells me that "this macro is for a newer Version of Onetastic..." although i have the latest Version "Current version: 3.1.1 July 31, 2016" downloaded and it seemed it was installed. Where can i check the version which is installed?
Thanks and best wishes,

Omer Atay - 2016-06-26

janp: This is due to the way indents work. This macro currently doesn't handle indented headings properly. It will see the indented one before the parent one. Probably an update to the macro language is needed to fix this.

janp - 2016-06-25

(edit)
When creating a TOC I get an incorrect order of the corresponding text headings:
What is:
Heading A (header style 1)
    Subheading A.1 indented (header style 2)
    Subheading A.2 indented (header style 2)
Heading B (header style 1)
    Subheading B.1 indented (header style 2)
Heading C (header style 2)

    Subheading A.2 indented (header style 2)
Heading A (header style 1)

Ivan, there was a bug in the macro. I just updated it. Please re-download the macro and give it a try.

Ivan - 2016-06-24

Installed version 3.0 of Onetastic. Now the TOC in Current Page does not indent based on Style formatted headings. Every line of the TOC is at the same level.

janp - 2016-06-24

Thanks, Omer. I filtered it down to one single line of text within the page. No idea what the problem was, but deleting that line makes it work ...

Omer Atay - 2016-06-22

janp: I tried with a page with 2000 headings (all of them heading 1), and I didn't hit the error. There must be something else going on with the page. Indentations, headings in tables etc. If you can share a page that hits the problem, I can look into it.

janp - 2016-06-22

Re: "The XML is invalid"
This only happens, when there are too many headings in the page.
But can this be fixed? I often have many headings in texts and would appreciate the macro to be capable of managing that.
Thanks!

Tom - 2016-06-17

Update to my previous post...as a quick workaround, I found that I can apply one of the OOTB Styles first, then apply the Custom Style for desired formatting.

Tom - 2016-06-17

This only appears to support the built-in Styles? Would be nice to also support the Onetastic Custom Styles.

For TOC to update automatically. Try this macro which has an option to update the existing TOC, you stil need to run the macro though.

For having TOC appear on the side, try a second window: Ctrl + M then Ctrl + Alt + D

1. Would be perfect if TOC would update automatically as we add new headlines to the note. In terms of style I would prefer if TOC would appear on the side of the main content note like in wikipedia, or in the sidebar like ad-dons for Google Docs.
- I agree, this would be perfect.

2. When you click a heading from the TOC, you are directed to the section, but the heading of the section is at the bottom of your page. Is it possible to be directed to the section, but change the settings so the heading is at the top and you can start reading instantly without scrolling?

Got "Invalid Pointer" recently in onenote 2016, but it works in onenote 2010. weird. But sometimes it just works fine. even weirder.

I'm getting an error "Invalid Pointer" whenever I use this extension, It was working a month ago.
Windows 8. Onenote 2013. v 15.0.4753.1003

First, thank you so much for the macro, it helps a lot. but back to top link is not working, when I click on it, it does nothing. I have to: first "copy link to paragraph" for the Heading title", and then edit "Back to Top" link and paste it there.

thankx

Great Macro. Just what I was looking for!

Generally like this TOC a lot!

However one small problem - it will be nice if it ignores "(Back to Top)" portion of headings - as I like many other users in these comments have constantly changing pages and outlines.

Table of Contents
Heading1
    Heading2
    Heading 2 - another

becomes (after heading change and re-doing TOC)
Heading1 (Back to Top)
    Heading2 (Back to Top)
    Heading 2b - another (Back to Top)

Is it possible to automatically updates the TOC as you write? I noticed that whenever I make changes to my notes, I have to recreate a TOC from scratch and erase the old one, which is annoying. are there any other plugin that could be used to automatically create a TOC in onenote?

My OneNote pages are continually changing. So as I add and delete Heading1s, 2s, and 3s, I have to manually delete the TOC and then re-add it with the macro. When I re-add to TOC, it includes all of the "(Back to Top)" portions of each heading name. WHAT A VISUAL MESS. It makes it really hard for your eyes to cruise through a lengthy TOC.

Even though that text is now officially part of the heading name, could you please update the macro to remove those characters from the TOC?

Other than that, this macro is AWESOME!

Incredible feature for long OneNote pages! Thanks a bunch.

However, I have yet to be able to use it--I have the OneTastic and Macros sections in the ribbon but can't seem to find a button anywhere...

Sorry if this is a silly question, but I downloaded the .onetastic file but can't seem to find it :/

Any suggestions?

I was able to find good info from your articles.|
Thank you for another fantastic article. The place else could anyone get that kind of info in such an ideal means of writing? I've a presentation next week, and I'm on the look for such info.

Works wonderfully thank you.
Suggest installing your three TOC macros in one go.

Thanks a lot for this feature. I hope you keep up the good work.

So I guess by \"built-in styles\" you mean the quick-styles that come with One-note by default. You can choose quick-styles on the right click menu of selected text. If you try to set heading style of the text from the \"Custom Styles\" home tab button it doesn\'t work. The quick-style headings worked for me.

My bad, sorry !
I didn\'t see the FAQ where it\'s clearly explained that the .onestatic file extension must be associated with MacroInstaller.exe.
Thanks.

Omer Atay - 2013-12-03

Oliver, just double click on the downloaded file to install the macro.

Olivier - 2013-12-03

Hi !
Your onenote extension is great, but it seems that we can not donwload Macros on this site. Every-time, for every macros, the file downloaded is not a xml, but a text file of 32 bytes with a hash-code.
For this one for example, the file name is \"TOC in Current Page.onetastic\", but the content is 01C7C254D45E462CB24B3246853B3032.
For the Upper Macro, the content is 0622BB0FF9C4416EA2E65BD264C86472.
Tanks a lot if you could fix this !

jupp25: You need to have used the built-in heading styles for this macro to generate a table of contents. It will use the Heading1-6 styles to find items for the table of contents.

hi,

the other TOC macros work fine, but this one doesnt for me.
maybe I can try to solve it myself, but would be thankfull for any idea.
