Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Reducing space between signature picture and name

[StefanH]

Hi guys,

thank your for the great looking "ModernCV and Cover Letter"-template.

I'm currently using the classic style, so I wanted to know, how can I reduce the space between my signature picture (.png) and my name in the cover letter?
In my point of view, there are too many blank lines between them.

I've tried to change the relevant sys-file, but now I'm running out of ideas.


Greetings,
Stefan

Welcome,

place the following block in your preamble and adjust to your needs.

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\renewcommand*{\makeletterclosing}{
  \@closing\\[3em]%
  {\bfseries \@firstname~\@familyname}%
  \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@enclosure}}{}{%
    \\%
    \vfill%
    {\color{color2}\itshape\enclname: \@enclosure}}}
    \makeatother

Hi,

thanks for your hint. Everything is working in a perfect way.

Hi,

just for a better understanding: why I cannot change the \@closing\\[3em]% line in the *.sys-file?
Why do I have to move the paragraph to the *.text-file and change it there?

Greetings,
Stefan
