I'm trying to condense the space around examples in gb4e, with the goal of removing unnecessary whitespace around examples in an abstract. Here's what gb4e gives me now:
What I'd like is for the examples to essentially look like part of the running text, as follows:
In sum, I'd like to remove the left indent before the top level item numbers, remove the vertical space between examples, and remove the vertical space above and below the exe
environment.
I think \vspace
commands might work here, but it would get very tedious to do this every time, and I'd also like to do it the 'right' way.
(I also think linguex
might be able to do this without too much fuss, but I'm used to using gb4e so I'd prefer to stick with it if there's a way to do this.)
MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{gb4e}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{exe}
\ex Blah \begin{xlist}
\ex Blah
\ex Blah
\end{xlist}
\ex Blah
\ex Blah
\end{exe}
\lipsum[1]
\end{document}
