Hello Martina! i solved the problem just with this command
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{your section title} \addcontentsline{toc}{subsection}{your section title} you have to write this after a section or subsection.. it should work. It works even for list of figures, table and nomenclature \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{LIST OF TABLES} \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{LIST OF FIGURES} cheers /davide martina.prugger wrote: > > Hi > > I use Lyx to write a document with a lot of tables.
