Editing the sidebar

Open jgammerman opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Hi Nick,

My new CV using your package is coming along nicely. But one problem I have with it is re-formatting, specifically when trying to tweak the sidebar, e.g. moving the asides or disclaimer up or down the document. I've tried just moving them to different places in cv.Rmd but it gives some unexpected results. Please could you give a few words of advice? I suppose I need to edit dd_cv.css?

Thanks

I wish there was an easy way to do it but there isn't. The easiest way would be to just get rid of the disclaimer section entirely as it currently is and resetting it. Currently, the disclaimer section ca cause some problems with reorganizing on the first page because its css is pinning it to the bottom and thus causing overlaps with the other contents.

If you have specific changes you want to make I can certainly help with that here. It's all possible but does require css (and sometimes HTML) tweaking.

Thanks Nick.

So an example change I'd like to make is to get the little asides to line up more with the section that they refer to. E.g. for the industry_experience_aside to start at the same point on the page as the industry_experience section, which would involve moving it up a little bit. Please could you advise on how to do that?

@jgammerman did you resolve this issue? I'd like to do the same thing! I've been fiddling with it for a while but can't seem to find a solution.
