General ⇒ Horizontal rules

[juliette]

Hello,

Is there a way I can make a horizontal rule that is blue instead of black ??

I also don't want it to be all the way accross the page, the command I'm using right now is:

\\newcommand{\lineunder}{\vspace*{-8pt} \\ \hspace*{-6pt} \hrulefill \\ \vspace*{-15pt}}

but I don't know how to incorporate customized color !!

Hi,

you could use the xcolor package and the \color command:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}

\newcommand{\lineunder}{\vspace*{-8pt}\par\hspace*{-6pt}\color{blue}\hrulefill\\\color{black}\vspace*{-15pt}}

\lineunder
