TOC vertical spacing
Hi all, I have figured out how to change the spacing between sections in the TOC using the tocloft package. However, the package doesn't seem to have a way to change the vertical spacing to double space right after a chapter if there are sections listed beneath. For example, I want this: 1 INTRODUCTION...1 [***change to double space***] 1.1 whatever1 1.2 whatever2 1.3 whatever3 2 INSTRUMENTATION...4 3 OVERVIEW5 You can change the spacing before each section, but if I do that then it will change not only the spacing right after a chapter, but also the spacing between each section. I just need to change the spacing right after a chapter if there are sections listed below. Does anyone know how to do this? I am all out of ideas at the moment. Thanks, Brad

Re: Vertical spacing before and after subsection headings and in TOC
Hello,
I was able to solve the first problem--the one involving the spacing
before and after subheading titles. Now all I need is some help with
the spacing of the section titles in the TOC. All I need to do is change
the vertical spacing to double space after a chapter title and single
space between each section title. For example,
1 Introduction. 1
[double space]
1.1 Background.. 2
[single space]
1.2 Goals. 3
This is the final thing I need help with. I know this can be done, I'm
just not sure how. If someone can help me with this that would be great.
Thanks!

I need to know how to define the vertical spacing before and after a

The code on Herbert's tip page for this does not want to work. Here is
the code for reference:
\makeatletter
\newlength{\mySpaceUnder}
\newlength{\mySpaceOver}

I changed 'section' to subsection in the above code. But when I try to
view the dvi output, it says the resulting document is empty. If I try
to view it a second time, I receive no error message but the changes
do not take effect. Can someone help me with this?
The second problem I am having is in the TOC. I need the vertical
space after the chapter title to be double instead of single spaced.
For example,
1 Introduction... 1
[change space here to be double instead of single]
1.1 blah.. 2
1.2 blah.. 3
I am using lyx 1.3.3 in the report class.
Any help for these two problems would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Vertical spacing for chapter headings
I have been trying to find a way to change the spacing between the top
of the page and the chapter number, between the chapter number and
chapter title, and the spacing after the chapter title.
For example,
[2 inches]
CHAPTER 1
[1.6 cm]
INTRODUCTION
[1.6 cm]
I have used the code (from Herbert's tip page) and have solved a few of
the errors (I think). Below is the code:
\makeatletter
\usepackage{calc}
\newlength{\topspace}
\setlength{\topspace}{2in
-\topmargin
-\headheight
-\headsep
-\topskip}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\vspace*{\topspace}
{\parindent \z@ \raggedright \normalfont
\ifnum [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\huge\bfseries [EMAIL PROTECTED] \thechapter
\par\nobreak
\vskip 20\p@
\fi
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\Huge \bfseries #1\par\nobreak
\vskip 20\p@
}
}
\makeatother
However I still get the following error message:
Undefined control sequence.
\chapter{INTRODUCTION}
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed.
I do not know what the problem is. It is imperative that I get this code
to work as it is necessary for a thesis. If anyone can help, please do so.

All other pages can remain at the default. For example: [space] Chapter 1 [space] Introduction [space] where I need to be able to define the amount of space in the areas labeled [space]. I have tried various solutions given to me by individuals on this list, but without success. Some of this may be my inexperience in dealing with LATEX. If anyone could help me solve this problem, it would be greatly appreciated. I am using the report class in lyx 1.3.3. Thanks, Brad
Vertical spacing before and after chapter headings
Hello, I need to have control over the vertical spacing between the top of the page and the chapter headings and the vertical spacing after the chapter headings for all pages with chapter headings on them. All other pages can remain at the default. For example: [space] Chapter 1 [space] Introduction [space] where I need to be able to define the amount of space in the areas labeled [space]. I have tried various solutions given to me by individuals on this list, but without success. Some of this may be my inexperience in dealing with LATEX.

Help needed
Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me solve two problems I am having.
I am using the report class in LyX 1.3.3. Here are the problems/questions:
1) How can I change the main chapter headings and chapter titles so that
they are not bold? As a second part to that question, how can I make it
so that the chapters are not bold in the TOC?
2) How can I change the vertical space both before and after the chapter
title? For example,
[I want to change this space]
Chapter 1
[I want to change this space]
Chapter title
[I want to change this space]
I looked at Herbert's website which does give code to do this very
thing, but I get several error messages such as missing \begin{document}
and undefined control sequence. The undefined control sequence errors
occur at the beginning of each chapter.
Here is the code given on his page for quick reference:
\usepackage{calc}
\newlength{\topspace}
\setlength{\topspace}{2in% the whole vertical space
-\topmargin%--- predefined
-\headheight% ...
-\headsep% ...
-\topskip} ...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\vspace*{\topspace}% the space above
{\parindent \z@ \raggedright \normalfont
\ifnum [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\huge\bfseries [EMAIL PROTECTED] \thechapter
\par\nobreak
\vskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- the space between Chapter # - title
\fi
\fi
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\Huge \bfseries #1\par\nobreak
\vskip [EMAIL PROTECTED] the space below
}
}
Any help would be much appreciated as these are the final changes
necessary for my thesis.
Thanks,
Brad

Need some help with a few things
Hello,
I have three problems that I was hoping someone could help me with. The
first is I need to be able to change the default spacing between section
names in the TOC. So for example, say I have:
CHAPTER 1...2
Section 1.1...2
Section 1.2...5
and I want to change the spacing between Section 1.1 and Section 1.2. Is
there a way this can be done?
Second, I need the first paragraph of my abstract to indent. The report
class default is for it not to be indented. I have tried entering
\hspace*{\parindent} in front of the paragraph in ERT, but this does not
work. I am also using the indentfirst package, but this does not affect
the abstract default settings.
Lastly, I need pages that begin a new chapter (i.e. pages that have
CHAPTER 1.. on them) to have 2 inches of space from the top of the page
to the chapter title instead of the default, which looks to be around
2.5 inches or so. All other pages can stay at the default spacing.
For reference, I am using the report class in LyX 1.3.3. Thanks in advance.

Abstract indenting
Can someone tell me how I might go about getting the first line of the first paragraph in the abstract to indent? I have the indentfirst package in the preamble, but this affects all the paragraphs in my document except for the abstract. Is there some code I can enter in ERT at the beginning of the abstract? Thanks, Brad
