White line in name-header

[jo-jstrm]

First of all, thanskbs for prvoding such a well documented template! It was really easy to customize thanks to your documentations.

Problem

My CV is based on your 'sidebar' template. I aligned the header box containing my name with the sidebar's top.

\begin{document}
\fcolorbox{white}{white}{\begin{minipage}[c][0.95\textheight][t]{0.69\linewidth}

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%	TITLE HEADLINE
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\vspace{-15pt} % I changed this!


% use this for single words, e.g. CV or RESUME etc.
\colorbox{bgcol}{\makebox[\mpwidth][c]{\HUGE{\textcolor{white}{\uppercase{Johannes Jestram}} } }}

\vspace{6pt}
%============================================================================%
%
%	CV SECTIONS AND EVENTS (MAIN CONTENT)
%
%============================================================================%

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%	STATUS
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\cvsection{Über mich}
...

However, this leads to a white bar showing in the middle of the header bar.

Expected Behavior

No white bar crossing my name.

What I tried

• Removed the image on the right
• Moved the headerbar a bit further down - the line remains in the exact same place, i.e., if I move the header bar down far enough, the white line no longer crosses it. Does it have something to to with the page layout maybe, e.g.,some padding boundary?

Do you have any ideas how to get rid of the white line?

This is very likely to be the border of some other box maybe? The whole vspace is very problematic and destroys layout quickly when boxes change.

Does it remove the line when you add the RESUME headline?

\colorbox{bgcol}{\makebox[\mpwidth][c]{\HUGE{\textcolor{white}{\uppercase{Johannes Jestram}} } \textcolor{sectcol}{\rule[-1mm]{1mm}{0.9cm}} \HUGE{\textcolor{white}{\uppercase{Resume}}} }}

[jo-jstrm]

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, adding the RESUME headline did not make the white line disappear.

However, I solved it:

• Change height of both minipages to 0.98: \fcolorbox{white}{white}{\begin{minipage}[c][0.98\textheight][t]{0.69\linewidth}.
• Now \vspace{-3pt} suffices for alignment, probably without moving out of bounds of a box
• I think the white line was the box of the left minipage

Code

\begin{document}
\fcolorbox{white}{white}{\begin{minipage}[c][0.98\textheight][t]{0.69\linewidth}

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
%	TITLE HEADLINE
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\vspace{-3pt}


% use this for single words, e.g. CV or RESUME etc.
\colorbox{bgcol}{\makebox[\mpwidth][c]{\HUGE{\textcolor{white}{\uppercase{Johannes Jestram}} } }}
