How can I center arbitrary content between two horizontal lines?












1















I want to implement a macro that takes exactly one parameter and will create a line above and below the content and ignores the text indentation.



This is meant to place some event information in protocols no matter what context I am in right now (e.g. within an enumerate or itemize).



It should interrupt the current block and always use the complete column width and then continue the block afterwards.



However, I am having problems with the vertical centering:



newcommand{bartext}[1]{
kern4pt % space above the rules
hrule height 0.5pt
vspace{0.1cm}
noindent #1
vspace{0.1cm}
hrule height 0.5pt
kern4pt % space below the rules
}

% Example Usage:

begin{itemize}
item First Point
item Second Point
bartext{Charlie enters the meeting}
item third point
fouth point
end{itemize}


The text "Charlie enters the meeting" should begin at the left, like the "Some text before".



also the lines are placed pretty odd an the text within the lines isnt vertically centered.



Any clues/ suggestions?

    Why not use item Second Point end{itemize} bartext{Charlie enters the meeting} begin{itemize}[resume*] item third point and the ` enumitem` package?

You can use a (non-floating) float:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{array,float}
newcommand{bartext}[1]{%
parmedskip
begingroup
intextsep=smallskipamount
extrarowheight =3pt %or perhaps a bit less ...
arrayrulewidth=.5pt
begin{figure}[H]%
begin{tabular}{@{}p{textwidth}@{}}
hline
#1
\hline
end{tabular}%
end{figure}%
parendgroup}

begin{document}
a
bartext{Charlie enters the meeting}
b
begin{itemize}
item First Point
item Second Point
bartext{Charlie enters the meeting}
item third point
item fouth point
end{itemize}
end{document}

You can use the functionalities of enumitem:



documentclass{report}%{memoir}
usepackage{enumitem}
usepackage{lipsum}

newcommand{bartext}[1]{
kern4pt % space above the rules
hrule height 0.5pt
vspace{0.1cm}
noindent #1
vspace{0.1cm}
hrule height 0.5pt
kern4pt % space below the rules
}

begin{document}

Some text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text.

begin{itemize}[after=vspace*{-topsep}]
item First Point
item Second Point
end{itemize}
bartext{Charlie enters the meeting}
begin{itemize}[resume*, before=vspace*{-topsep}]
item third point
item fourth point
end{itemize}

end{document}

    You can use the functionalities of enumitem:



    documentclass{report}%{memoir}
    usepackage{enumitem}
    usepackage{lipsum}

    newcommand{bartext}[1]{
    kern4pt % space above the rules
    hrule height 0.5pt
    vspace{0.1cm}
    noindent #1
    vspace{0.1cm}
    hrule height 0.5pt
    kern4pt % space below the rules
    }

    begin{document}

    Some text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text. Some more text.

    begin{itemize}[after=vspace*{-topsep}]
    item First Point
    item Second Point
    end{itemize}
    bartext{Charlie enters the meeting}
    begin{itemize}[resume*, before=vspace*{-topsep}]
    item third point
