TOC made with XRef needs line break in middle of line(s)

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Bodvar,

You might want to look at FrameSLT by West Street Consulting 
(http://www.weststreetconsulting.com). It allows you a straightforward way 
to generate tables of contents within documents. These would be standard 
elements instead of cross-references so you wouldn't have to worry about 
line breaks.
