InDesign Grep - How to add a different return space after last paragraph if you have multiple paragprahs

[ShannonReinholdt]

I have multiple paragraphs with the line return of 0.1875pt between paragraphs. I want the last paragraph to have a line return of 0.375pt so that there is more space between the paragraph and the next title. How do I make this happen?

Add "space before" to the paragraph style you're using for the titles.

Hi shannonr,

I would like to know if the steps suggested above worked for you, or the issue still persists.

Kindly update the discussion if you need further assistance with it.

Thanks,

The answer that Ariel provided worked. However, it's not quite what I was looking for because depending on the paragraph style that comes after, for example, a large, medium or small title, I still have to do some playing around to make it look nice and even. That means I have to play around and check all pages instead of knowing the look will be the same throughout. Ideally, it would be great to have a format style that says after the last paragraph includes this space.

Create a "Body Text Last" based on "Body Text" with extra spacing after.

If you have a lot of text to apply it to, you could write a GREP find/change to help apply it. If there's not that much, use keyboard shortcuts or quick apply. But I don't think GREP will apply space below to a paragraph directly. That's done with Paragraph styles.

If you use a baseline grid and align to it, you can probably achieve your needs without style tweaking.
