I am currently working around verstical space in lists and changig a bit the spacing. I have come up around this answer: Vertical space in lists
That has worked fine for me with enumitem
package.
However I am trying to write a two (possibly three) level list. Something like this:
\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{report}
\usepackage[onehalfspacing]{setspace}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\renewcommand{\labelitemii}{$\diamond$}
...
\begin{itemize}[itemsep=5pt,parsep=0pt]
\item item sep \the\itemsep{} and parsep \the\parsep
\begin{itemize}
\item item sep \the\itemsep{} and parsep \the\parsep
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
As you can see, defining the separation of lines at the beginning of Level 1 changes the separation, but it doesn't change it for the Level 2. I want to avoid having to adding the suffix [itemsep=5pt,parsep=0pt]
at every level, as my list has various items at different levels.
Important for me is that I don´t want to change it globally (!) for the whole document (!), as for other lists I still wish the standard values. That´s why something like \setlist{itemsep=5pt,parsep=0pt}
at the beginning of the document is not helpful.
Question: Can Someone tell me how to use code like the one above which automatically changes the spacing for all levels? (Not just level 1)
I guess the solution lies in creating a personal enviornment like \newenvironment{myitemize}
, but I am not sure and don't know how to do that.
I would aprreciate any help, many thanks in advance!

You can group a \setlist. Or use the before-key to pass values to nested lists:
