You can try to add

\definelayout[<pagenumber>][grid=no]

to your document where you replace <pagenumber> with the number of the page where your TOC starts.

Thanks for this idea, but it does not work. The grid=no is simply ignored for the toc-page (as many grid=no options are ignored in many environments and commands, seems to be field open for improvements). Is there another idear for a workaround? At the moment I have only one option: resigning these different font sizes in the toc, which are defined manually absolutely (possible, but awkward) Is there maybe another "trick" to deactivate gridsetting, analogical to placeongrid, or tricks with tables, or so? I am experimenting here, too, of course :) Huseyin
