Spacing issue in cls file

[rikudoukarthik]

I recently faced an issue when trying to make a CV using the AwesomeCV template. My problem was that it considered regular content and R code content as two different kinds of content, and gave different spacing for each.

When I looked into the cls, I noticed that in addition to \acvSectionContentTopSkip and \acvSectionTopSkip values, there was another \vspace{-3mm} in the %Define a subsection for CV and %Define a paragraph for CV options. I chose to remove the -3mm from here, and also changed \acvSectionContentTopSkip from 2.5mm to 0.5mm. Now things seem much better.

Could you maybe explain why exactly there is \vspace{\acvSectionContentTopSkip} as well as \vspace{-3mm} in the original code?

Yep, I have the same issue. My third cventry is squished too closely to my second entry. The fix provided by @rikudoukarthik worked for me. What are the consequences for this fix?
