horizontal alignment
I have this problem:
Basically on the second line "Matricola: XXXXXX" isn't right aligned.
My latex is:
\begin{minipage}[t]{7cm}
\textsc{Relator}
Prof. NameName\\
\end{minipage}
\hfill
\begin{minipage}[t]{7cm}
\hfill \textsc{Candidato}
\hfill Name Name\\
\hfill Matricola: XXXXX
\end{minipage}
is there any way to fix this?
Another possible solution:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\newcommand\MyHeadings[3]{%
\multicolumn{2}{@{}p{0.45\textwidth}@{}}{#1} & #2 & #3 \tabularnewline
}
\newcommand\Description[1]{%
\textbullet & \multicolumn{3}{@{}p{0.97\textwidth}@{}}{#1}\tabularnewline}
\begin{document}
\noindent
\begin{tabular}{@{}p{0.03\textwidth}@{}p{0.42\textwidth}@{}p{0.3\textwidth}@{}>{\raggedleft}p{0.25\textwidth}@{}}
\MyHeadings{Avian Influenza}{Tamiflu}{Jan 2, 2011}
\Description{stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff}
\Description{stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff}
\MyHeadings{Chicken pox}{DrugXYZ}{Feb 3, 1998}
\Description{stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff}
\Description{stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff}
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
And yet another option: tabular is only used for the words requiring alignment, the descriptions are left to an itemize environment (customized with the help of enumitem):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\usepackage{array}
\setitemize{leftmargin=*,nolistsep}
\newcommand\MyHeadings[3]{%
\noindent\begin{tabular} {@{}p{0.45\textwidth}@{}p{0.3\textwidth}@{}>{\raggedleft}p{0.25\textwidth}@{}}
#1 & #2 & #3
\end{tabular}\par
}
\begin{document}
\MyHeadings{Avian Influenza}{Tamiflu}{Jan 2, 2011}
\begin{itemize}
\item stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff
\item stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff
\end{itemize}
\MyHeadings{Chicken pox}{DrugXYZ}{Feb 3, 1998}
\begin{itemize}
\item stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff
\item stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff stuff
\end{itemize}
\end{document}
use it this way:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\begin{align}
u(x+\Delta x, t) &= u(x,t) +\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial x}\Delta x +\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial t}(t-t) + \frac12\frac{\partial^2 u(x,t)}{\partial x^2}(\Delta x)^2 \\
& \qquad + \frac{\partial^2u(x,t)}{\partial x\partial y}(t-t)(\Delta x)^2 + \frac12\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial^2t}(t-t)^2 \\
& \qquad +(...)\Delta x^3 +(...)\Delta x^4
\intertext{Seeing powers of t dropping in expansion around $x\pm\Delta x$}
u(x-\Delta x, t) &= u(x,t) -\frac{\partial u(x,t)}{\partial x}\Delta x + \frac12\frac{\partial^2 u(x,t)}{\partial x^2}(\Delta x)^2 -(...)\Delta x^3 +(...)\Delta x^4\\
& \left[\frac12\frac{\partial^2 u(x,t)}{\partial x^2}(\Delta x)^2+ \frac12\frac{\partial^2 u(x,t)}{\partial x^2}(\Delta x)^2\right] \\
& = u(x-\Delta x, t) + u(x+\Delta x, t) - u(x,t) - u(x,t) + O(\Delta x^4)
\intertext{Odd powers of $\Delta x$ cancelling eachother}
\frac{\partial^2 u(x,t)}{\partial x^2} &= \frac{u(x-\Delta x, t) + u(x+\Delta x, t) - 2u(x,t)}{\Delta x^2} + O(\Delta x^2)
\end{align}
\end{document}

Don't use
\hfillfor the alignment, use\flushleftand\flushright:
