Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Moving the name and contact information downwards

[liminarflow13]

Hey guys,

I want to have more space for my résumé. Its a great template but I would like to move my contact information abit downwards.

I'm using the casual style and I guess that I have to change stuff in the file:
moderncvstylecasual.sty and probably under the part:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand*{\makecvfooter}{%
  \setlength{\footerwidth}{0.8\textwidth}%
  \fancypagestyle{plain}{%
    \fancyfoot[c]{%
      \parbox[b]{\footerwidth}{%
        \centering%
        \color{color2}\addressfont%
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@addressstreet}}{}{\addtofooter[]{\addresssymbol\@addressstreet}%
          \ifthenelse{\equal{\@addresscity}{}}{}{\addtofooter[~--~]{\@addresscity}}\flushfooter\@firstfooterelementtrue\\}% if \addresstreet is defined, \addresscity will always be defined but could be empty
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@mobile}}{}{\addtofooter{\mobilesymbol\@mobile}}%
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@phone}}{}{\addtofooter{\phonesymbol\@phone}}%
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@fax}}{}{\addtofooter{\faxsymbol\@fax}}%
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@email}}{}{\addtofooter{\emailsymbol\emaillink{\@email}}}%
        	\ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@homepage}}{}{%
	\ifthenelse{\equal{\@homepagetitle}{}}% \homepagetitle could be empty
	{\addtofooter{\homepagesymbol\httplink{\@homepage}}}%
	{\addtofooter{\homepagesymbol\httplink[\@homepagetitle]{\@homepage}}}}% 
        \ifthenelse{\isundefined{\@extrainfo}}{}{\addtofooter{\@extrainfo}}%
        \ifthenelse{\lengthtest{\footerboxwidth=0pt}}{}{\flushfooter}% the lengthtest is required to avoid flushing an empty footer, which could cause a blank line due to the \\ after the address, if no other personal info is used
        }}}%

But I actually dont know what I have to change. For it seems like the footer is just edited here and position is not defined.

Have you guys a clue how to do that?

Thank ahead!

Found a way to do it:

Use:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[scale=0.8,top=1cm, bmargin=4cm, footnotesep=2cm]{geometry}
