lyxtable of contents
I am working on a thesis and need to create a contents page so that each entry is a link towards a section or subsection. The current layout I'm using is "Article".
How may I introduce a content page right after the abstract:
so that the first entry (Introduction) will take the user to the Introduction section when clicked, in the PDF output document.
You can define a \fakesection that does all the things the regular \section does except print the actual heading:
\newcommand{\fakesection}[1]{%
\par\refstepcounter{section}% Increase section counter
\sectionmark{#1}% Add section mark (header)
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\protect\numberline{\thesection}#1}% Add section to ToC
% Add more content here, if needed.
}
A similar macro for \fakesubsection would be
\newcommand{\fakesubsection}[1]{%
\par\refstepcounter{subsection}% Increase subsection counter
\subsectionmark{#1}% Add subsection mark (header)
\addcontentsline{toc}{subsection}{\protect\numberline{\thesubsection}#1}% Add subsection to ToC
% Add more content here, if needed.
}
The uses would be \fakesection{some section} and \fakesubsection{some subsection}.
You can use
\section*{Abstract} % starred section doesn't get the correct header
\markright{\spacedlowsmallcaps{Abstract}}% set the header
Code:
\documentclass[
headinclude,footinclude, % Extra spacing for the header and footer
]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[
nochapters, % Turn off chapters since this is an article
]{classicthesis} % The layout is based on the Classic Thesis style
\usepackage{lipsum} % Used for inserting dummy 'Lorem ipsum' text into the template
\title{Title} % The article title
\begin{document}
\maketitle % Print the title/author/date block
\tableofcontents % Print the table of contents
\newpage
\section*{Abstract} % starred section doesn't get the correct header
\markright{\spacedlowsmallcaps{Abstract}}% set the header
\lipsum[1]
\end{document}
Note that classicthesis breaks many KOMA-Script features. Without classicthesis I would use the class option headings=optiontoheadandtoc and then \addsec[tocentry={}]{Abstract}:
\documentclass[
headinclude,footinclude,
headings=optiontoheadandtoc
]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\title{Title}
\pagestyle{headings}% set the page style
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\newpage
\addsec[tocentry={}]{Abstract}
\lipsum[1]
\end{document}

Within your document body, use Insert > List/TOC > Table of Contents:
This will insert a Table of Contents marker which will eventually output to a linked Table of Contents:
Also add
hyperrefsupport (Document > Settings... > PDF Properties > Use Hyperref Support) to enable hyperlinks from the ToC to the respective sections within your document:
