endnotes & table of contents

I am trying to include a link to endnotes on the T.O.C. but I can't find the way.
I have tried it by writing "Notes" above the first endnote and
formatting it as "heading 2" but when compiling the T.O.C. that header is not
recognized. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
If your “Notes” heading is formatted as a “Heading 2” paragraph, make sure Show levels 2” is selected in the TOC dialog.

HTH.

Yes, "level 2" was selected in the TOC dialog but it does not work.
Endnotes appear at the end of the document separated by a gray bar but
they don't belong to any "chapter". When saving the work as epub, all notes
are "packed" together in a file "notes.html" but without any header, thus,
they can not be "linked" in a T.O.C.
So I am trying to "force" a "Notes" heading by manually typing text between the grey bar and the first endnote but no success.

Hi,
The only solution I found was to create the endnotes manually, using bookmarked “endnotes” placed at the end of the document, and numerical hyperlinks to the bookmarks within the document body.

You cannot insert anything between the endnote separator and the first note.

You can add the "Notes" heading paragraph at the end of the body text of your document. It would be included in the TOC. But there will be a page break between that heading and the first note in the EPUB.

Yes, that's the only solution I found and then, using Sigil, I merge the "Notes" heading paragraph at the end of the document together with the notes themselves and, this way, both are in the same file and linked in the T.O.C.
Thanks a lot for your interest & hints.

The latest beta version of Atlantis merges the "Notes" heading with the notes themselves automatically.
