To edit or move a master object, you must first make master objects selectable for the
entire document by choosing Format > Advanced > Make Master Objects Selectable
if that option has no checkmark in front of it. Selectable master objects look different
from other objects because they have blue selection handles.

Using a Table of Contents
Using a Word Processing template, Pages can automatically generate a table
of contents for your document. Many Word Processing templates come with a
preformatted table of contents that you can add to your document. To add a table
of contents to your document, see “Creating and Updating a Table of Contents” on
page 64.
To create a table of contents in a word processing document, you need to consistently
use paragraph styles for headings in your document. To learn about styles, see “What
Are Styles?” on page 123 and “Applying Styles” on page 125.
After you create a table of contents, you can format it to change its appearance. See
“Styling a Table of Contents” on page 65 for more information.
Creating and Updating a Table of Contents
Each table of contents (TOC) you create using a Word Processing template lists only
the content that follows it, up until the next table of contents. If you want a master
table of contents for the entire document, it must be the only table of contents, and it
must be at the beginning of the document.
To update the TOC after editing a document, click any entry in the table of contents, or
click Update Now in the TOC pane of the Document inspector. If you don’t update the
table of contents after changing a document, it updates automatically when you close
the document.
To create a table of contents:
1 Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Document button, and then click TOC.
