First word of cvparagraph in colour rather than first 3 letters

[chappo007]

Is it possible to change the behaviour of the section for 'cvparagraph' to use the 'awesome' colour for the full length of the first word rather just the first 3 letters. I can change it for length of characters and probably create individual paragraph sections but would prefer something generic.

Do you want the change for all sections or only those containing a cvparagraph environment? If it would be acceptable to use the color for the entirety (not just the first word) of all section headings, you could replace the definition of \@sectioncolor with

\def\@sectioncolor#1{%
\ifbool{acvSectionColorHighlight}{\color{awesome}{#1}}{}%
}

and the definition of \sectionstyle with

\newcommand*{\sectionstyle}[1]{%
{\fontsize{16pt}{1em}\bodyfont\bfseries\color{text}\@sectioncolor{#1}}%
}

If you want just the first word of the section title to be in color, maybe you can use the answers to this question.

Just the first word. Thanks for the tip, I'll try it sometime soon. Cheers.

Just got this working. It does the job. I needed to use the latest release.

Hey,
I try to figure out who can I color the first word in the cvparagraph section but I don't see where should I put \FirstWord method...
I hope you can help.
Thanks

It would be nice to have an example of the solution. I couldn't get it working.

@chappo007 would you mind sharing the solution that worked for you?

What I have done is,
I added
\newcommand*{\lettersectionstyledark}[1]{{\fontsize{14pt}{1em}\bodyfont\bfseries\color{darktext} #1}}

And modified lettersection to this,

\newcommand{\lettersection}[2]{%
\par\addvspace{2.5ex}
\phantomsection{}
\lettersectionstyle{#1}
\lettersectionstyledark{#2}
\color{gray}\vhrulefill{0.9pt}
\par\nobreak\addvspace{0.4ex}
}
