Hi, this is about #4227 "Tables of contents are not independent between \books" https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/issues/4227
My previous workaround was to abuse the 'name entry in each toc-item, i.e. I used a custom `tabel-of-contents'-markup-command filtering `toc-items' for a certain name and only print the remaining ones per book (ofcourse this made hierarchical indents impossible, which was acceptable). Alas, that 'name-entry is gone with: commit 33ca296b8c71d0e30352653d2108445e3395b74e Author: Jean Abou Samra <j...@abou-samra.fr> Date: Mon Jul 11 13:34:34 2022 +0200 Fix possible naming conflicts in structured TOCs While the head of the path can refer to a nested node, the rest of the path is now interpreted by always looking up a direct child of the previous node. This fixes odd conflicts when several nested nodes have the same path, although it is still not possible (by design) to have a nested node called something, and then a root node called the same. Nonexistent nodes (trying to do \tocItem foo.bar before \tocItem foo) are no longer silent, but now emit a warning. This uses modification of hash tables instead of mutation of alists, so it also happens to fix #6302, caused by alist pairs being shared. Fixes #6302, #6384 Though, I can't use a modified version of the new code setting `toc-items' because dong so in an own ly-file causes: fatal error: call-after-session used after session start So, #4227 persist and my workaround is gone... Any idea how to make it work? Here some basic code to play with: \version "2.23.80" \book { \markuplist \table-of-contents \tocItem \markup "bookI" { r1 } } \book { \markuplist \table-of-contents \tocItem \markup \italic "bookII" { r1 } } Thanks, Harm
