I'm creating an index for a catalog that has sections, which I'm tagging as First Level in the index, and all the items within that section will be Second Level index entires/listings. Is there a way to automatically have the First Level field filled in with the section name when I'm tagging the Second Level entries?
I'm using InDesign CC 2014 on a Mac.
Thanks,
Lloyd
I've just asked a similar question.
Looks like the answer is you can't do it.
What you can do is copy the level 1 text, create a new index entry at level I and shift it down to level 2 then past the level 1 text you have already copied.
Cant believe this isn't covered in the official text!
shadycoubs,
How do you "shift" the level 1 to level 2?
