[Tex/LaTex] appendix missing in toc

apa6appendicestable of contents

I have a document with apa6 class in which sections are the uppermost heading level. In Lyx I set "Start Appendix here" which sets \appendix in the sorce. Afterwards I define a section. In the rendered document (pdflatex) it reads Appendix A followed by the section name but there is no toc entry.

So my questions are:
Am I missing something? In other posts I read that the toc entries should appear automatically.

I don't know, if it is possibly suppressed by the document class. Does anybody know, if this might be the case?

Best Answer

In class apa6 command \appendix redefines \section completly and this redefined \section does not provide an entry in ToC.

You could patch \appendix to patch the redefined \section:

\usepackage{xpatch}
\makeatletter
\xapptocmd\appendix
  {\xapptocmd\section
    {\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\appendixname\ifoneappendix\else~\theappendix\fi\ #1}}
    {}{\InnerPatchFailed}%
  }
{}{\PatchFailed}

Code:

\documentclass{apa6}
\usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text in this example

\usepackage{xpatch}
\makeatletter
\xapptocmd\appendix
  {\xapptocmd\section
    {\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\appendixname\ifoneappendix\else~\theappendix\fi\ #1}}
    {}{\InnerPatchFailed}%
  }
{}{\PatchFailed}

\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\blinddocument

\appendix
\section{Section in Appendix}
\subsection{Subsection in Appendix}
\Blindtext
\blinddocument
\end{document}

[Tex/LaTex] Appendix with own toc

You can work with bookmarksdepth

\documentclass[toc=flat,numbers=noenddot]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\makeatletter
\newcommand*{\maintoc}{%
  \begingroup
    \@fileswfalse
    \renewcommand*{\appendixattoc}{%
      \value{tocdepth}=-10000%
    }%
    \tableofcontents%
  \endgroup
}
\newcommand*{\appendixtoc}{
  \begingroup
    \edef\@alltocdepth{\the\value{tocdepth}}%
    \setcounter{tocdepth}{-10000}%
    \renewcommand*{\contentsname}{%
      List of Appendices}%
    \renewcommand*{\appendixattoc}{%
      \setcounter{tocdepth}{\@alltocdepth}%
    }%
    \tableofcontents%
    \setcounter{tocdepth}{\@alltocdepth}%
  \endgroup
}
\newcommand*{\appendixattoc}{}%
\g@addto@macro\appendix{%
  \clearpage%
  \phantomsection%
  \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\appendixname}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\protect\appendixattoc}%
  \renewcommand*{\thesection}{Appendix~\Alph{section}}%
}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\maintoc
\blinddocument

\hypersetup{bookmarksdepth=-1}
\appendix
\pdfbookmark[-1]{Appendix}{appendixentry}
\appendixtoc
\hypersetup{bookmarksdepth=4}
\blinddocument
\end{document}

enter image description here

EDIT:

You can also modify the interna of the level -- here I changed them in the following way:

\g@addto@macro\appendix{%
  \clearpage%
  \phantomsection%
  \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\appendixname}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\protect\appendixattoc}%
  \renewcommand*{\thesection}{Appendix~\Alph{section}}%
  \def\toclevel@chapter{1}%0
  \def\toclevel@section{2}%1
  \def\toclevel@subsection{3}%2
  \def\toclevel@subsubsection{4}%
  \def\toclevel@paragraph{5}%
  \def\toclevel@subparagraph{6}%
  \def\toclevel@figure{7}%
  \def\toclevel@table{8}%
}

The result is the same:

\documentclass[toc=flat,numbers=noenddot]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{bookmark}
\makeatletter
\newcommand*{\maintoc}{%
  \begingroup
    \@fileswfalse
    \renewcommand*{\appendixattoc}{%
      \value{tocdepth}=-10000%
    }%
    \tableofcontents%
  \endgroup
}
\newcommand*{\appendixtoc}{
  \begingroup
    \edef\@alltocdepth{\the\value{tocdepth}}%
    \setcounter{tocdepth}{-10000}%
    \renewcommand*{\contentsname}{%
      List of Appendices}%
    \renewcommand*{\appendixattoc}{%
      \setcounter{tocdepth}{\@alltocdepth}%
    }%
    \tableofcontents%
    \setcounter{tocdepth}{\@alltocdepth}%
  \endgroup
}
\newcommand*{\appendixattoc}{}%
\g@addto@macro\appendix{%
  \clearpage%
  \phantomsection%
  \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\appendixname}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\protect\appendixattoc}%
  \renewcommand*{\thesection}{Appendix~\Alph{section}}%
  \def\toclevel@chapter{1}
  \def\toclevel@section{2}
  \def\toclevel@subsection{3}
  \def\toclevel@subsubsection{4}
  \def\toclevel@paragraph{5}
  \def\toclevel@subparagraph{6}
  \def\toclevel@figure{7}
  \def\toclevel@table{8}
}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\maintoc
\blinddocument

\appendix
\appendixtoc

\blinddocument
\end{document}

EDIT: Changed the order of \appendix and \pdfbookmark

[Tex/LaTex] Bibliography appears as an appendix in ToC in LyX

The following code will remove the phrase "Appendix. " in front of "Bibliography" in the table of contents when using the LaTeX amsbook class or the LyX document class book (AMS).

\usepackage{xstring}
\renewcommand{\tocappendix}[3]{%
  \indentlabel{\IfStrEq{#3}{Bibliography}{}{#1}\@ifnotempty{#2}{ #2.\quad}}#3}

For LyX, this code can be inserted into the LaTeX Preamble ("Document > Settings...").

Background:

For typesetting the table of contents, the ".toc" file is used (it can be found in the "tmpdir" / "tmpbuf" directory of LyX). It contains lines like

\contentsline {chapter}{\tocappendix {Appendix}{A}{My First Appendix}}{3}
\contentsline {chapter}{\tocappendix {Appendix}{}{Bibliography}}{3}{appendix*.1}

Furthermore, the class file amsbook.cls defines

\newcommand{\tocappendix}[3]{%
  \indentlabel{#1\@ifnotempty{#2}{ #2}.\quad}#3}

By redefining the command \tocappendix we can omit the printing of the first argument (e.g., "Appendix") if the third argument is "Bibliography". For string comparison, the xstring package is used. Furthermore, the bracket } in front of .\quad was moved behind \quad.
