TeX - LaTeX Asked on June 17, 2021
I’m very new to latex. I want to create cheat sheet for my training purpose using latex.
Below is the latex code –
documentclass[10pt,english,landscape]{article}
usepackage{multicol}
usepackage{calc}
usepackage[landscape]{geometry}
usepackage{color,graphicx,overpic}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[bitstream-charter]{mathdesign}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{url}
usepackage{amsfonts}
usepackage{array,booktabs}
usepackage{textcomp}
usepackage[usenames,dvipsnames,table]{xcolor}
usepackage[most]{tcolorbox}
usepackage{tabularx}
usepackage{multirow}
usepackage{colortbl}
usepackage{tikz}
usepackage{environ}
usetikzlibrary{calc}
pgfdeclarelayer{background}
pgfdeclarelayer{foreground}
pgfsetlayers{background,main,foreground}
geometry{top=-0.5cm,left=1cm,right=1cm,bottom=1cm}
pagestyle{empty} % Turn off header and footer
% renewcommandrmdefault{phv} % Arial
% renewcommandsfdefault{phv} % Arial
% Redefine section commands to use less space
makeatletter
renewcommand{section}{@startsection{section}{1}{0mm}%
{-1ex plus -.5ex minus -.2ex}%
{0.5ex plus .2ex}%x
{normalfontlargebfseries}}
renewcommand{subsection}{@startsection{subsection}{2}{0mm}%
{-1explus -.5ex minus -.2ex}%
{0.5ex plus .2ex}%
{normalfontnormalsizebfseries}}
renewcommand{subsubsection}{@startsection{subsubsection}{3}{0mm}%
{-1ex plus -.5ex minus -.2ex}%
{1ex plus .2ex}%
{normalfontsmallbfseries}}
makeatother
setcounter{secnumdepth}{0} % Don't print section numbers
setlength{parindent}{0pt}
setlength{parskip}{0pt plus 0.5ex}
definecolor{TableHead}{rgb}{0.353, 0.329, 0.667}
definecolor{TableRow}{rgb}{0.816, 0.812, 0.902}
NewEnviron{keys}[2][2]{% <-- Modified by default, 2 columns
% begin{center}
smallskip
begin{tikzpicture}
rowcolors{1}{}{TableRow}
% centering
node (tbl) [inner sep=0pt] {
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{*{#1}{X}} % <-- Modified
rowcolor{TableHead}
multicolumn{#1}{l}{normalsizetextbf{color{white}{#2}}}parbox{0pt}{rule{0pt}{0.3ex+baselineskip}} % <-- Modified
BODY
arrayrulecolor{TableHead}specialrule{.17em}{0em}{.2em}
end{tabularx}};
begin{pgfonlayer}{background}
draw[rounded corners=2pt,top color=TableHead,bottom color=TableHead, draw=white]
($(tbl.north west)-(0,-0.05)$) rectangle ($(tbl.north east)-(0.0,0.15)$);
draw[rounded corners=2pt,top color=TableHead,bottom color=TableHead, draw=white]
($(tbl.south west)-(0.0,-0.11)$) rectangle ($(tbl.south east)-(-0.0,-0.02)$);
end{pgfonlayer}
end{tikzpicture}
% end{center}
}
begin{document}
raggedright
begin{center}
Large{underline{Emacs Cheatsheet}}
end{center}
footnotesize
begin{multicols}{2}
begin{keys}[3]{Glossary}
Control (Ctrl) key & texttt{C} & texttt{C key for your OS}
Alt (Meta) key & texttt{M} & texttt{M Key for your OS}
Shift key & texttt{S} & texttt{M Key for your OS}
Command (Super) key & texttt{CMD} & texttt{M Key for your OS}
Function (Fn) key & texttt{fn} & texttt{M Key for your OS}
Home/end & texttt{fn-left / fn-right} & texttt{M Key for your OS}
end{keys}
end{multicols}
end{document}
This creates table as below –
As you can see in the above image the one column Glossary
is working fine. I want to provide heading for other two columns like Glossary, Shortcut, Description.
I tried like this for table header –
begin{keys}[3]{Glossary}{Shortcut}{Description}
But it gives compile error.
Any idea how can I fix this issue?
You just need to add additional parameters to the keys
environment:
NewEnviron{keys}[4][2]{...}
and then call it as desired
begin{keys}[3]{Glossary}{Shotcut}{Description}
This also eliminates the need to use multicolumn
.
