HiYa-

As I understand it, Space Before & After are cumulative. If it adds up to
more than what you want, the respective Style(s) should be modified
accordingly. You might also consider creating duplicate Styles that differ
only on that attribute so you can use the appropriate variation where
necessary.

Hi,

I'm heavily doing with applying styles. Now I have a paragraph with some
SpaceAfter which is followed by a paragraph with some SpaceBefore. Is it
always the case that the space between the two paragraphs equals the sum of
the SpaceAfter and the SpaceBefore, or is there an option so that the space
between equals the maximum of SpaceAfter and SpaceBefore (the two spaces are
"overlapping")?

Thanks for help,
Henk
