moderncv
I am using moderncv classic and I want to achieve something similar to this, where the address is part of a section.
However, I want it to have at the left side like it is default in moderncv classic style.
I tried several ways, but none were quite good:
Linebreaks inside moderncv did not work and creating an empty item with only the address info (e.g. street) as description was not properly aligned.
So, how do I get the address as a cventry field?
You can add \hfill followed by \newline to put an empty line, so your entry will look like:
\cvitem{Something looooong}{\hfill \newline Second entry}
All you need to do is to define a newcommand (say, \emailtwo), completely analogous to \email as defined in moderncv.cls and then to modify appropriately the \makecvtitle command (as implemented in moderncvclassic.sty) to conditionally include the information for this new field:
\documentclass{moderncv}
\moderncvstyle{classic}
\makeatletter
\newcommand*{\emailtwo}[1]{\def\@emailtwo{#1}}
\renewcommand*{\makecvtitle}{%
% recompute lengths (in case we are switching from letter to resume, or vice versa)
\recomputecvlengths%
% optional detailed information box
\newbox{\makecvtitledetailsbox}%
\savebox{\makecvtitledetailsbox}{%
\addressfont\color{color2}%
\begin{tabular}[b]{@{}r@{}}%
\ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@addressstreet}}{}{\makenewline\addresssymbol\@addressstreet%
\ifthenelse{\equal{\@addresscity}{}}{}{\makenewline\@addresscity}}% if \addresstreet is defined, \addresscity will always be defined but could be empty
\ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@addressstreettwo}}{}{\makenewline\addresssymbol\@addressstreettwo%
\ifthenelse{\equal{\@addresscitytwo}{}}{}{\makenewline\@addresscitytwo}}% if \addresstreettwo is defined, \addresscitytwo will always be defined but could be empty
\ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@mobile}}{}{\makenewline\mobilesymbol\@mobile}%
