cv4tw's Issues

Create cv4tw matrix

Make process of choosing theme easy.

Some time ago I was very surprised when take a first look at Beamer matrix site.

I propose to make something similar to this.

Provide mechanism to place urls inside custom cvcontacts

Main issue described in title :)

Now, there is no straight-forward mechanism to place link inside custom cvcontacts, like it is done automatically by predefined cvcontacts.

Add ability to rearrange cvcontacts

Add ability to rearrange predefined + custom cvcontacts.

dependency on newenviron prevents biblatex from working

The newenviron package itself pulls in catoptions, which prevents biblatex from parsing package options. AFAICT the newenviron package is not needed, in fact, commenting it out does not seem to have any effect.

Compilation fails with XeLaTeX: "Extra \endgroup"

I tried building sample-jules-verne-shar.tex as follows:

xelatex.exe -no-pdf -shell-escape -synctex=1 -halt-on-error -8bit -no-pdf -recorder -output-directory="build" ".\sample-jules-verne-sharp.tex"

But I get:

! Extra \endgroup.
\document ->\endgroup 
                      \let \BeforeStartOfDocument \@firstofone \cpt@beforest...
l.43 \begin{document}

PS: Is this template still maintained (possibly somewhere else)?

Error while make

Unfortunately, I got error every time I apply make in examples directory.

tro@t430s:~/Projects/cv4tw/examples$ make clean
rm -f sample-jules-verne.pdf
tro@t430s:~/Projects/cv4tw/examples$ make
This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.5-0.9999.3 (TeX Live 2013/Debian)

entering extended mode
! I can't find file `sample-jules-verne.tex'.
<*> sample-jules-verne.tex

(Press Enter to retry, or Control-D to exit)
Please type another input file name:

If I make changes to Makefile this way:

...
$(CVNAME).pdf: $(CVNAME).tex
    /bin/cat $<
...

I got output of sample-jules-verne.tex.

Can someone recommend what to do to solve that issue?

Provide way to add links in custom cvcontact

For example, I have next code:

\setmystyle[custom0bullet]{\color{icons}\FA\symbol{"F171}} % bitbucket
...
\setcvcontact[github]{troyane}
\setcvcontact[custom0]{troyane} % bitbucket

As a result I got almost all as I expected except github's label is real link to github, but bitbuckt's isn't.

Moving skills on the left as a simple list

Hi Cicatrice,

Excellent work on this template, I'm loving the compact version! I'm trying to figure out how to move the skills part on the left side below the cvcontact informations thought, to get more space to describe my experience. It seems like this is not a 2-column body, but instead a single document with left padding, and cvcontacts floating elements forced on the left side, so it makes it difficult to do this kind of customization. I'll investigate it further, but any advice will be dearly appreciated.
