If someone knows how to do this, I would really like to know too. I have
found a LAYO resource in the SYSTEM file in 7.0, but when I use ResEdit
to change the numbers for the spaceing, it seems to have no effect. Do I
need to change something else as well? Other things in the LAYO in
SYSTEM seem to take effect when changed, such as snap to grid.

I really want my old spacing back!!!
