TOC with sections titles and page numbers like a paragraph beneath chapter
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/adf1b6085515459d1ea446f4bf2c673a.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
I am attempting to get a TOC that looks like the following (in other words with section titles and their relative page numbers in a block below the chapter): Chapter 1 ...................................................5 Section 1 5, Section 2 6, Section 3 7, Section 4 8, Section 5 9 etc Chapter 2 ................................................10 Section 1 10, Section 2 11, Section 3 12, Section 4 13, Section 5 14 etc As I really had no idea how to do this, I found https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Horizontal_Table_of_Contents thinking it might help, but none of it compiles (for me) in LMTX. So I tried something different, e.g. \definelist[chapter] \setuplist[chapter][label=yes,distance=1.5cm,alternative=c,style=normal,before=\blank] \definelist[section] \setuplist[section] [textcommand=\setups{SecToc}] \setupcombinedlist [content]o [list={chapter,section}] \startsetups [SecToc] \startframedtext [width=\textwidth, align=middle, frame=off] \placelist [section] [ criterium=chapter, ] \stopframedtext \stopsetups While that produces a result, it is nothing like what I want above. Has anyone put together a TOC of this kind and might be able to give me a hint to follow? Julian

Please send *working* (which include some dummy content) examples. The example below results in section entries which are listed as a paragraph, what output do you expect here. \setuplist[chapter][alternative=c] \setuplist[section][alternative=d] \starttext \completecontent \dorecurse{2} {\chapter{Chapter #1} \dorecurse{10}{\section{Section ##1}}} \stoptext Wolfgang

This is fairly close to what you're looking for I think (the manual, not the package itself): http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/generic/lua-widow-control/lua-widow-co... The source is a little messy, but I've used it in a bunch of other documents and it seems fairly robust: https://github.com/gucci-on-fleek/lua-widow-control/blob/7c4544/docs/manual/... There aren't any page numbers for the subsections in that, but you should be able to add those inside the definition of \SubsectionTOCcommand with either #3 or \currentlistentrypagenumber. Thanks, -- Max

That's kind of you Max, and I will definitely take a look at that, both for the current book I am working on, but also for the variations it can offer for other titles. In the meantime, Wolfgang gently reminded me that I had overlooked one various obvious (and simple) approach using alternative=d, which I confess I had entirely overlooked!
