TC (Table of Contents Entry) Field

Updated on Jun 16, 2026

The TC (Table of Contents Entry) field defines the text and page numbers for entries in a table of contents and in lists of tables, figures, and similar contents. Insert this field before the text that you want to include in the contents.

To update the field, you need to set the FlowExtensibilityManager.NumberingFieldsProvider.

Inserting

You can insert this field through the RadFlowDocumentEditor's InsertField() method. It accepts code as an argument.

Example 1 demonstrates how you can insert a TC field.

Example 1: Insert TC Field

C#

    editor.InsertText("Text before ");
    editor.InsertBreak(BreakType.LineBreak);

    editor.InsertField("TC Item1 \\f a \\l 1");

    editor.InsertBreak(BreakType.LineBreak);
    editor.InsertText("Text after");

This type of field does not have a result and does not need to be updated.
