This is a LaTeX issue, first and foremost. It's easy to get only the
chapters in the TOC initially. (See Document> Settings> Numbering and
TOC). It's getting the TOCs for each chapter that is the issue. But I
believe there are LaTeX packages that will do this. Go to CTAN.org
and search for them, or try googling. If you can find it, then, at a
bare minimum, you could do this with ERT, and you can also file an
enhancement request for native support for the package.
Thanks for the prompt reply.
I have found a "package" to do the job called Minitoc. Unfortunately
being an ignorant beginner in this field I don't know how to "Install
it " and make it work from Latex.
What OS are you using? There's probably a Package Manager of some sort
you can use to install the package.
Andrew's instructions on how to use minitoc can be explained in more
detail once we have the package installed.
