I want to have a non-zero \parskip
between the paragraphs, but avoid having it around the "inline" itemize.
I could temporarily change it around each environment, but I have a lot of them in my document. I could also redefine the itemize
environment and introduce a \vspace*{-\parskip}
, but I'd prefer a cleaner way. Changing \parskip
inside the environment is useless as it only works inside the group.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\parskip=6pt
Praesent hendrerit velit at magna tempus, at malesuada augue lacinia. Pellentesque at malesuada est, vel varius enim. In egestas massa et finibus ultricies. Donec felis erat, placerat et sodales in, egestas non mi.

Packages like paralist
and enumitem
did not seem to solve the problem in presence of \parskip
.
Best Answer
latex uses
\topsep
as the local version of\parskip
in that context so just set\parsep
to whatever you need, however if setting without using enumitem or similar package you need to set it indirectly as article sets up each first level list using a predefined set of parameters.or perhaps you want
depending how tight you want the spacing.
