Making formated frame equal to source frame using LTXexample

Post by yoyoimut »

Dear all,

I am using showexpl package.

If the attribute "frame" is enabled (frame=single) then the frame enclosing code becomes larger than the frame enclosing the formated text.

However, when I disable it, both frames have the same size.
Please see my screen shot below.

I want to enable the frame such that both frames are equal to the text width.
Do you have any idea to do this?

\documentclass{article}
\setlength{\textwidth}{8cm}
\usepackage{xcolor}

\usepackage{showexpl}
\lstset{%
	backgroundcolor=\color{yellow},
	frame=single,	
	framesep=\fboxsep,
	framerule=1pt,
	rulecolor=\color{red},
	xleftmargin=2\fboxsep, 	% no affect for LTXexample.
	xrightmargin=2\fboxsep,	% no affect for LTXexample.
	language=[LaTeX]TeX,
	explpreset={pos=b,vsep=\fboxsep}%
}


\newcommand{\Marker}{\noindent\strut\vrule\hrulefill~\scriptsize{\color{blue}text width}~\hrulefill\vrule}

\begin{document}
\section{Frame is enabled}
\Marker
\begin{LTXexample}
frame is enabled.
\end{LTXexample}
\Marker

\section{Frame is disabled}
\Marker
\begin{LTXexample}[frame=none]
frame is disabled.
\end{LTXexample}
\Marker
\end{document}
