Background
A manual with chapters, sections, subsections, and sub-subsections. Using KOMA Script v2.
Problem
The spacing between the heading title and its number is too close to the number in some cases:
After reading the tocloft
package, I do not see how to adjust the spacing between the heading title and the number.
Question
How do you increase the space before the section title a consistent amount?
Ideas
Tried including the following package:
\usepackage[tocindentauto]{tocstyle}
Tried setting linewidth:
\setlength{\linewidth}{15em}
Tried setting the dottedtocline:
\makeatletter
\renewcommand*{\l@section}{\@dottedtocline{1}{4.5em}{5.3em}}
\makeatother
The last attempt looks promising, but it is tricky to adjust the margins correctly.
