Adding heading text to footers
Hi !
I have a multi-section document in which each section begins with a level-1 header. I need the level-1 heading text for each section to be in the footer. I'm currently doing it the hard way by manually inserting cross-references in the odd-page and even-page footers of each section. The problem with this is that if I make any changes (insert or delete section breaks), my cross-references break or point to the heading text from another section. Is there any way to automate this by creating a variable that could be in all the footers and call the level-1 heading text from the current section and display it in the footer? Thanks! |

Use a style ref field in the footer. See
