Table of Contents 'Settings' disappears after changing to 'Heading only'

[PAS-BC]

Description

My Table of Contents Settings was initially displaying entries for 'Headings' and 'Colours'.

Since the note I was viewing has a lot of highlighting colours, I thought the TOC would be simpler with them off.

So, after clearing the 'Colours' selector, the Table of Contents only displayed entries for Headings - as expected.

The problem is that now I can't find any 'Settings' icon to re-introduce 'Colors' as a listing option again -irrespective of the note I choose.

There may have been another option as well as Colors, but I can't see any Settings now.

This situation, no TOC Settings icon, is now the case in both the Desktop and Server instances, despite closing and re-opening the Desktop.

Error logs

I did open logs, but because I didn't note the time I changed the Table of Contents settings, I couldn't determine the appropriate time span to copy.

Hi,

Go to Options -> Text Notes -> Highlights list and check again the items you'd like to show, probably Colored text,

By the sound of it you are using old layout (in Options -> Appearance), please be aware that the next version will remove this. In the new layout the panes are visible even if there are no highlights or table of content entries.

Already using the 'Modern' appearance - thank you for drawing my attention to the Text Notes options - the Settings icon is now back in the TOC bar after reinstating the colored text.

Thank you for all the development work you do on this great product.
