How can I use \smash, \llap or \rlap for \item in an enumerate environment?

Just write the command and the argument therein.

This question ist not very specific. Perhaps elaborate what you mean.

Do you mean like this? \llap{\item} ? OR \item{\llap} ?

Post by **Stefan Kottwitz** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 6:22 pm

I mean the latter, such as \item{\llap{text}}.

NO no i mean collapsing the label itself using \smash or \rlap or \llap

You could use the enumitem package which provides commands for such lists customizations.

I've read that package a zillion times. Nothing in there helps with what I want.

Please explain what it is you want. Otherwise, it's going to be hard to provide any help.

have a look at "Correct Alignment of nested Counters with outer Contents" post that I posted. This is ultimately what I am trying to do. By removing whitespace around the \item still doesn't help.
