What is this about? The Main Lesson Here: Don't place attributes such as Bold, Italic, Underscore on text in the form of a Character Style as well as building that SAME attribute into a Heading Style applied to that SAME piece of text.
If you want to have certain attributes show up in the TOC you have to know how the system reacts to certain scenarios.
Let's examine this: Some things we know for sure.
1. If a Heading in the Raw Text (pre-formatted text) is in Uppercase and you leave it that way, and build uppercase into your Heading style, then the Raw Text will Win Out and your TOC will be in ALL CAPS.
2. If a Heading in the Raw Text is taken out of ALL CAPS to Initial Caps and ALL CAPS is built into the Heading Style, then your TOC will have Initial Caps only.
3. If a Character Style is used on Heading Text within the document such as Italic, Bold or All Caps
but NOT built into the Heading Style itself, then that character style attribute will now show up in the TOC.
4. Here is the main point. If you build an attribute such as Small Caps into a Heading Style and you apply that same attribute as a Character Style to that SAME piece of text then the Heading Style Attribute will override and CANCEL OUT the Character Style. In that case, your TOC will NOT have the intended attribute. You would need to REMOVE the attribute in the Heading style for the Small Caps character style to be carried over into your TOC.
5. Finally, if the attribute is selected in the Heading Style (such as Small Caps) and you apply that same attribute as DIRECT Formatting to the Heading Text then:
-- It will display the attribute in the document as in our example (Small Caps), but it will NOT transfer over to the TOC. You would have to make sure to remove the attribute from the Heading Style.
