[Tex/LaTex] Table of Contents within Appendix

appendicestable of contents

My Minimum Working Example:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{appendix}

\begin{document}

\section{My First Section}

\section{My Second Section}

\begin{appendices}

\section*{My First Appendix}

Here I want something like:

\noindent My First Subsection ........... 1

\noindent My Second Subsection ........ 1

\subsection*{My First Subsection}

\subsection*{My Second Subsection}

\section*{My Second Appendix}

\end{appendices}

\end{document}

The result:

enter image description here

So basically, I want a table of contents within My First Appendix, only containing references to the subsections appearing in this Appendix.

Below I present another two options.

Here's one possibility using the titletoc package; simply use \DoToC whereever you want to generate the partial ToC:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{appendix}
\usepackage{titletoc}

\newcommand\DoToC{%
  \startcontents
  \printcontents{}{2}{\textbf{Contents}\vskip3pt\hrule\vskip5pt}
  \vskip3pt\hrule\vskip5pt
}

\begin{document}

\section{My First Section}
\section{My Second Section}

\begin{appendices}
\section{My First Appendix}
\DoToC
\subsection{My First Subsection}
\subsection{My Second Subsection}

\section{My Second Appendix}
\DoToC
\subsection{My First Subsection}
\subsection{My Second Subsection}
\end{appendices}

\end{document}

enter image description here

Here's now one possibility using the etoc package; simply use \localtableofcontents whereever you want to generate the partial ToC:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{appendix}
\usepackage{etoc}

\begin{document}

\section{My First Section}
\section{My Second Section}

\begin{appendices}
\section{My First Appendix}
\localtableofcontents
\subsection{My First Subsection}
\subsection{My Second Subsection}

\section{My Second Appendix}
\localtableofcontents
\subsection{My First Subsection}
\subsection{My Second Subsection}
\end{appendices}

\end{document}

You can always add a line like:

\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\protect\numberline{A}{Appendix A}}

and section gives the format you want. Then the level in the toc and the format of the heading is independent:

\newcounter{appendix}
\renewcommand\theappendix{\Aleph{appendix}}
\newenvironment{appendix}{%
    \refstepcounter{appendix}
    \subsection*{Appendix \theappendix}
    \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\protect\numberline{\theappendix}{Appendix \theappendix}}
}{}

I bet there's a package that does this too ;-) Also instead of using \subsection you could define your own heading with \@startsection. But that is more involved and probably not necessary.

As for the bibliography, if I understand you correctly, you can do it in the same way:

\phantomsection
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{References}
\bibliography{mybibliography}

[Tex/LaTex] appendix package: making appendix subsections

My understanding of appendices in LaTeX is that you issue the \appendix command, and then carry on creating sections as before. You can have a \section called Appendix, and then within that, a \subsection called Safety.

Code:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{tocbibind}
\usepackage[toc,page]{appendix}

\begin{document}    
\tableofcontents

\section{Introduction}
  this is my introduction
\appendix
\section{Appendix}
\subsection{Safety}
\end{document}

Result:
