How to have 2 different sized texts on the same line?












5















I want to put 2 different sized texts on the same line. Below are my criteria:




  • Right side is right justified and is normalsize

  • left side is left justified and is large

  • must dynamically change to fit depending on the size of the text, i.e. no predefined minipages


Currently, I am trying to use hfill, but it is putting the right side on a new line, like shown in the picture. Any help would be greatly appreciated!



newcommand{resumesection}[2]{
bigskip
{color{heading}LARGEbfseriesMakeUppercase{#1} hfill color{heading}normalsizebfseriesvfillRaggedRight{#2}}\
{color{heading}rule{linewidth}{1pt}par}medskip
}


Output from above text, not what I am looking for

Is that what is needed ?

usepackage{lipsum}

newcommand{resumesection}[2]{

{color{heading}LARGEbfseriesMakeUppercase{#1}

  • Thank you for the comment! It worked perfectly for me! How can one reduce the space between the text and that line?

    – Alex Tacescu
    Dec 22 '18 at 5:04













  • @AlexTacescu the space can be reduced by providing a negative length to \ e.g \[ -0.5 cm] or \[-0.6baselineskip]. I will update my answer.

  • On overleaf, it is giving me an error, saying "There is no line here to end" when I copy your code exactly. Any idea why this would occur? Should I use a different Latex compiler?

  • @AlexTacescu I am using overleaf too and there is no error at all! So may be you should try again

You're not using the alignment correctly. Here's an option using tabularx to set the heading using hfill between them:



enter image description here



documentclass{article}

usepackage{lipsum}
usepackage{xcolor,tabularx}
colorlet{heading}{red!65!black}

newcommand{resumesection}[2]{{%
parbigskip
setlength{arrayrulewidth}{1pt}%
color{heading}%
noindentbegin{tabularx}{linewidth}{@{} X @{}}
LARGEbfseriesMakeUppercase{#1}hfillnormalsizebfseries #2 \
hline
end{tabularx}%
parnobreakmedskip
}}

begin{document}
