Page ranges are separated by a hyphen. SortOrderIX %The sort order for the index entries Example: $<$symbols><$numerics><$alphabetics> 9The index will list symbols first, then numeric entries, and then alphabetic entries. Level1IX Level2IX 4Formatting of the different levels of index entries Example: Level1IX LeveI2 8The index has two levels. First-level entries are flush -left, and second-level entries are indented. GroupTitlesIX +The title for each sorted group of entries Example: Symbols[\ ];Numerics[0]; i 4A;B;C;D;E;F;G;H;I;J;K;L;M;N;O;P;Q;R;S;T;U;V;W;X;Y;Z 7Group titles will be bold in the index. Note that each $title is separated by a semicolon. IgnoreCharsIX 0The characters to ignore when sorting the index ra entries Example: -Hyphens, en dashes and em dashes are ignored when the entries are sorted. IndexIX 4The contents and format of the page number to which UU each entry refers Example: <$pagenum> 3The page number for each entry will be bold in the by index. 0Building blocks in the index specification flow Building block Effect <$symbols> <$numeric> <$alphabetics> 4Used in the paragraph tagged SortOrderIX to specify 4how the index entries are sorted. The order ascends from left to right. <$pagenum> 4Inserts the number of the page containing the index 5marker. When this building block is in the paragraph u 4tagged IndexIX, page numbers appear for each entry. <$nopage> 3Excludes the page number of the index marker. When 8this building block is in the paragraph tagged IndexIX, the index has no page numbers.

For each list you generate, FrameMaker creates a new reference page. LThe special flow contains paragraphs whose formats are the same as those in do Lthe generated list. These paragraphs contain building blocks that determine &the contents of each list entry. Moreer Example LBased on the preceding reference page specification, the generated table of fo &contents would include the following: Section 1 First heading following topic Another following topic Just another heading Section 2 Hypertext links in lists TWhen you generate hypertext links in a list, FrameMaker inserts a paragraph Nin the specification flow to define the type of links generated. For example, Lwhen you generate an active table of contents, FrameMaker inserts a paragraph tagged ActiveTOC. NYou should type the link definitions exactly as shown. Use the <$relfilename> Nbuilding block to generate a relative pathname from the generated list to the Fother document. The following examples all use <$fullfilename>, which )generates the complete path of the file. &You can generate five types of links: 7gotoObjectId <$fullfilename>:<$Objecttype> <$ObjectId> ;displays the selected item centered in the current window. 7openObjectId <$fullfilename>:<$Objecttype> <$ObjectId> lis 5displays the selected item centered in a new window. More d (gotopage <$fullfilename>:<$pagenumonly> ?displays the page in the current window with nothing selected. )openpage <$fullfilename>:<$pagenumonly> 9displays the page in a new window with nothing selected. alert <$fullfilename> Bdisplays an alert that shows the filename of the source document. Index specification flows HA generated index is formatted according to a special flow that is on a reference page. FThe special flow contains paragraphs. The formats of these paragraphs Mdetermine what aspect of the index the paragraphs specify and the formats of y the resulting entries. More:< Moreic More y GThe paragraphs on the reference page contain building blocks, as shown here: Hypertext links in indexes LWhen you generate hypertext links in an index, FrameMaker inserts a Oparagraph in the specification flow to define the type of links generated. For Iexample, when you generate an active index, FrameMaker inserts a paragraph tagged ActiveIX. NYou should type the link definitions exactly as shown. Use the <$relfilename> Obuilding block to generate the name of a relative path from the generated file Mto the other document. The following examples all use <$fullfilename>, which )generates the complete path of the file. &You can generate five types of links: 7gotoObjectId <$fullfilename>:<$Objecttype> <$ObjectId> ;displays the selected item centered in the current window. 7openObjectId <$fullfilename>:<$Objecttype> <$ObjectId> 5displays the selected item centered in a new window.
