Thanks for the help, that worked nicely for the chapter vertical space. Now how to I modify the vertical space for the other sections? I tried these commands with no success.
\renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}} \renewcommand*{\othersectionlevelsheadendvskip}{\vspace*{0pt}} Thanks again, Bob On Wed, 2006-08-30 at 10:05 +0200, Juergen Spitzmueller wrote: > Bob Lounsbury wrote: > > Does anyone know how to modify the chapter vertical space above and > > below a chapter title for the koma-script book class?
