Hi all,
I just converted my thesis from the old \chapter format to the new \startchapter … commands, to be more flexible when defining the titles for toc etc. If you're just giving a title, e.g.
\startsection[
title={my fancy section}
]
bla
\stopsection
then the title is correctly displayed within the document. Nevertheless, it ends up enclosed in curly braces in the PDF-Toc. My current workaround, if I put a comma after the title
\startsection[
title={my fancy section},
]
it looks fine. Guess this is bug, not expected behavior.
