Pages - Table of Contents - Subhead Indent Within Document?

Wondering if someone can tell me how to make a subhead (Heading 2) indent within the inserted Table of Contents?


It works fine and indents in the sidebar, but when I insert it into my document everything lines up to the left with no differentiation between headings and subheadings.


I am probably missing something obvious, but am not seeing it.


Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Hi G4RAY,


In the Table of Contents, click on any Heading 2 entry. That will select all Heading 2 entries.

Menu > View > Show Rulers.


On the ruler, drag the left indent to the right.


Regards,

Ian.
