Full Color Section Heading (Solved)

[dcsim]

UPDATE: Making this change in awesome-cv.cls to line 215, and making the second change on line 153 solved it.
\newcommand*{\sectionstyle}[1]{{\fontsize{16pt}{1em}\bodyfont\bfseries% \color{**awesome-skyblue**}\@sectioncolor #1}}

% Awesome section color \def\@sectioncolor**{}**{% \ifbool{acvSectionColorHighlight}{{\color{awesome}**{}}}{}**% }

Hmmm... I don't know what do you ask exactly, sorry. If you want to disable section color highlighting, on your resume.tex, just set this \setbool{acvSectionColorHighlight}{false}

If it is not the answer you want, please write in more detail.

Rather than have only three letters be awesome colors, I'd like to have the entire section heading awesome color. Below is what I believe to be the relevant code. Originally it had #1#2#3 there, but I removed as a quick hack to keep the awesome colors for Locations.

% Awesome section color
\def@sectioncolor{}{%
\ifbool{acvSectionColorHighlight}{{\color{awesome}{}}}{}%
}

You can change the color on \sectionstyle in 224 line number.

Can you re-open this ticket? I want to know how to enable color for entire section (not just first three characters of Section Header Name)

Thanks!

The original post on this issue was updated with how I managed to get it done to be more than the first 3 letters of a section heading, and an image of what it looks like.

Would love to see this being configurable, as in 0-n number of characters to be coloured, with the option to colour all characters.

Hi @dcsim,

Your fix does not work because you use an old version of LaTeX. I figured it out though.

The line to change as of November 16th, 2016 to get this working is to modify awesome-cv.cls, Line 155 and 156 for the following:

% Awesome section color
\def\@sectioncolor{\color{awesome}}

This will make the section colour entirely "awesome" (the variable, and quite literally), based on your setting in resume.tex

Thanks,

Shah

How to change the heading to a custom color ?

@yashladd there is a line to change in main tex file similar to this :
\definecolor{awesome}{HTML}{CA63A8}
