Page Layout ⇒ Memoir class, contents formatting

[twesslen]

I am using the memoir class to format my thesis, with a format similar to the memoir documentation sample thesis. The requirement for my university requires that the table of contents be spaced as in the attachment "Required Format." Also attached as "Current Format" is what my contents look like. Its close, but it looks like algorithmically, I need to doublespace after a change in the section level, i.e. after changing from chapter to section and from section to subsection, but if a level repeats, it should be single spaced.

A minimum working example is:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{memoir}

\begin{document}
\maxtocdepth{subsubsection}
\tableofcontents

\chapter{Chapter One}
\section{Section A}
\section{Section B}
\subsection{Subsection a}
\subsection{Subsection b}

\chapter{Chapter Two}
\section{Section A}
\section{Section B}
\section{Section C}


\end{document}

which gives the output seen in the attachment "MWE." Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

the requirement is a bit strange and perhaps hard to implement. Spacing before sections, for example, would be easy to set, such as

Code: Select all

\setlength{\cftbeforesectionskip}{\cftbeforechapterskip}

You could do it manually, if necessary, using \addtocontents, such as by

Code: Select all

\chapter{Chapter One}
\addtocontents{toc}{\vspace{\cftbeforechapterskip}}
\section{Section A}
