Dear list,
Is it possible, in mkiv, to fine-tune the distance between a chapter head and a section head, between the end of a section and the following section head, and between a section head and the beginning of the text?
My problem is the following:
In the revision of a thesis, to economize on processing times, I have done all corrections in the bodymatter, or even parts of it, using the setups of the entire project. But when I now add the front matter these above-mentioned distances have slightly increased, by 3 to 5 mm, with a rather devastating effect on the precise placement of large floats. At the beginning of a new chapter the difference is one textline (double line spacing), which does not seem a big deal but with nearly 500 pages of text it leads to nasty results.
In my setups I have for the heads
\setuphead[chapter][
header=empty,
page={yes,header,right},
number=yes,
alternative=middle,
style=\tfa \bf,
after={\blank[0.5cm]},
]
en
\setuphead[section][
style=tfa,
number=yes,
alternative=left,
indentnext=no
]
Changing "after={\blank[0.5cm]}" to "after={\blank[0.1cm]}" or omitting it altogether did not have any effect.
If the culprit is to be found in the Frontmatter, or its specific setups, what should I look for?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone
