quarto book .content-visible ignored

[verbalins]

Bug description

Change the default contents of index.qmd created in a new book project to:

::: {.content-visible when-format="html"}
# Preface {.unnumbered}

This is a Quarto book.

:::

The compiled pdf file shows the chapter heading "Preface" but not the contents (This is a Quarto book...). It is my understanding that the chapter title should also be ignored?

Thanks for the report! I can reproduce the issue. Unfortunately, the issue is not entirely simple to solve because it involves the order in which filters are applied, and we find the sections before applying the content-hidden transformation.

[jjallaire]

Yes, we do special handing of the initial header within book source files so using content-visible in this fashion won't work.

[verbalins]

Thank you for your response! Any suggestions on how to handle this currently? Write a lua filter to skip that part for the pdf?

[kjohnsen]

I'm running into this too...would appreciate the help. I have some chapters I need for HTML but need to hide for LaTeX

[verbalins]

I actually wrote a lua script to handle this. Let me get back to you about how to do it.

https://github.com/verbalins/his-template/blob/main/_extensions/his/ignore_index.lua Heres my lua to remove the index from the pdf.

Awesome. Thank you!!!
