[Tex/LaTex] Inline subsubsection heading with KOMA

koma-scriptsectioning

I want inline subsubsection headings, as displayed in the example below. It is easy to realize them with the titlesec package, but according to this thread, there are incompatibilities between KOMA and titlesec.

Is there a solution which does not use titlesec and is fully compatible with the KOMA classes?

MWE:

\documentclass{scrbook}

\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\subsubsection}[runin]{\bfseries}{}{}{}[.]

\begin{document}
\chapter{A chapter heading}
\section{A section heading}
\subsection{A subsection heading}
\blindtext
\subsubsection{Inline subsubsection heading}
\blindtext
\subsubsection{Another inline subsubsection heading}
\blindtext
\end{document}

and a screenshot:

With the latest version of KOMA-script, you can declare

\RedeclareSectionCommand[afterskip=-.5em]{subsubsection}

MWE:

\documentclass{scrbook}

\usepackage{blindtext}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[afterskip=-.5em]{subsubsection}

\begin{document}

\chapter{A chapter heading}
\section{A section heading}
\subsection{A subsection heading}
\blindtext
\subsubsection{Inline subsubsection heading.}
\blindtext
\subsubsection{Another inline subsubsection heading.}
\blindtext
\end{document}

Output:

You can play with the vertical spaces. I defined all section commands new:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[automark]{scrpage2}
\usepackage{xcolor}

\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{a4paper, top=35mm, left=30mm, right=60mm, bottom=25mm, headsep=15mm, footskip=12mm}

\makeatletter
\newcommand\makeSecHead[4][\fbox]{%
  \@namedef{#2}{\@ifnextchar*{\@nameuse{#2@i}}{\@nameuse{#2@ii}}}
%
    \expandafter\def\csname#2@i\endcsname*##1{\par\vspace{#4}\noindent
       #1{\parbox{\dimexpr\textwidth-2\fboxsep-2\fboxrule}{%
         \normalfont\normalsize#3\makebox[40pt][l]{}~##1}}\par\vspace{#4}}%
%
    \expandafter\def\csname#2@ii\endcsname{\@ifnextchar[{\@nameuse{#2@iii}}{\@nameuse{#2@iv}}}%
%
    \expandafter\def\csname#2@iii\endcsname[##1]##2{\par\vspace{#4}\noindent
      #1{\parbox{\dimexpr\textwidth-2\fboxsep-2\fboxrule}{%
        \refstepcounter{#2}\normalfont\normalsize#3\makebox[40pt][l]{\@nameuse{the#2}}~##2}}%
        \addcontentsline{toc}{#2}{\@nameuse{the#2}~##1}\par\vspace{#4}}%
%
   \expandafter\def\csname#2@iv\endcsname##1{\par\vspace{#4}\noindent
     #1{\parbox{\dimexpr\textwidth-2\fboxsep-2\fboxrule}{%
       \refstepcounter{#2}\normalfont\normalsize#3\makebox[40pt][l]{\@nameuse{the#2}}~##1}}%
       \addcontentsline{toc}{#2}{\@nameuse{the#2}~##1}\par\vspace{#4}}%
}
\makeatother    

\makeSecHead[\colorbox{gray!30}]{chapter}{\Huge\bfseries}{20pt}

And here is some code for placing images without textpos:

\ifoot[{\makebox[\linewidth][r]{%
  \makebox(0,0){\put(10,200){\includegraphics[width=2cm,height=4cm]{tiger}}}}}]
   {\makebox(0,0){\put(-100,200){\includegraphics[width=2cm,height=4cm]{tiger}}}}

In scrbook/scrreport, the skip before/at the end of a chapter is given by

\renewcommand*{\chapterheadstartvskip}{%
  \vspace*{2.3\baselineskip}%
}%
\renewcommand*{\chapterheadendvskip}{%
  \vspace{1.725\baselineskip
    \@plus .115\baselineskip \@minus .192\baselineskip}%
}%

Adjust them to your liking. In terms of \sections, the KOMA-script bundle still uses \@startsection (see Where can I find help files or documentation for commands like \@startsection for LaTeX?). Here's the definition for \section:

\newcommand\section{%
  \@startsection{section}{\sectionnumdepth}{\z@}%
  {-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}%
  {2.3ex \@plus.2ex}%
  {\ifnum \scr@compatibility>\@nameuse{scr@v@2.96}\relax
    \setlength{\parfillskip}{\z@ plus 1fil}\fi
    \raggedsection\normalfont\sectfont\nobreak\size@section}%
}

Adjust the two rubber lengths (arguments #4 and #5 to \@startsection) to suit your needs.

Here is a minimal example where the mentioned lengths have been adjusted:

enter image description here

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,BCOR10mm,DIV11,toc=listof,parskip=full,twocolumn]{scrbook}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\chapterheadstartvskip}{\vspace{0pt}}
\renewcommand{\chapterheadendvskip}{\vspace{\baselineskip}}
% \patchcmd{<cmd>}{<search>}{<replace>}{<success>}{<failure>}
\patchcmd{\section}{-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}{-\baselineskip}{}{}
\patchcmd{\section}{2.3ex \@plus .2ex}{.5\baselineskip}{}{}
\makeatother
\begin{document}

\raggedright
\chapter{chap1}
\section{sec1}
blaahblah
\section{sec2}
Blah
\chapter{chap2}
BlahBlah
\chapter{chap3}
Blah

\end{document}

Of course the above only references changes to \chapter and \section. You'd have to adjust lower-level sectional units in an analogous way. For example, here's an option to remove even more spacing around the sectional units, this time including that of \subsection:

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\chapterheadstartvskip}{\vspace{0pt}}
\renewcommand{\chapterheadendvskip}{\vspace{\baselineskip}}
% \patchcmd{<cmd>}{<search>}{<replace>}{<success>}{<failure>}
\patchcmd{\section}{-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}{-\z@}{}{}
\patchcmd{\section}{2.3ex \@plus .2ex}{1sp}{}{}
\patchcmd{\subsection}{-3.25ex\@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}{-\z@}{}{}
\patchcmd{\subsection}{1.5ex \@plus .2ex}{1sp}{}{}
\patchcmd{\@xsect}{\ignorespaces}{\vspace*{-.5\baselineskip}\ignorespaces}{}{}
\makeatother
