Grouping enumerated list with different width?












6















I found this nice answer regarding grouping of enumerated list. But it does not work for lists with different width. For instance



documentclass{article}

usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{decorations.pathreplacing}

newcommand{tikzmark}[1]{tikz[overlay,remember picture] node[baseline] (#1) {};}

tikzset{My Node Style/.style={midway, right, xshift=3.0ex, align=left, font=small, draw=none, thin, text=black}}

newcommandVerticalBrace[4]{%
% #1 = draw options
% #2 = top mark
% #2 = bottom mark
% #4 = label
begin{tikzpicture}[overlay,remember picture]
draw[decorate,decoration={brace, amplitude=1.5ex}, #1]
([yshift=1ex]#2.north east) -- ([yshift=-1ex]#3.south east)
node[My Node Style] {#4};
end{tikzpicture}
}

begin{document}
begin{enumerate}
item Item 1tikzmark{top 1}
item Item wide wide widetikzmark{bottom 1}
item Item 3tikzmark{top 2}
item Item 4
item Item wide wide wide
item Item 6tikzmark{bottom 2}
end{enumerate}

VerticalBrace[ultra thick, blue]{top 1}{bottom 1}{The first two items}
VerticalBrace[ultra thick, blue]{top 2}{bottom 2}{The last four items}
end{document}


gives

How can I fix this?

  • It might not be a good solution at the first glance, but did you try to add some extra space to shorter items with hspace?

  • @MajidAbdolshah It will certainly make ugly braces. It is very hard to make the braces absolutely vertical.

You can keep track of which bullet is the longest and set all y-coordinates to that.



begin{enumerate}
item Item 1tikzmark{top 1}
item Item wide wide widetikzmark{bottom 1}
item Item 3tikzmark{top 2}
item Item 4
item Item wide wide wide widetikzmark{longest 2}
item Item 6tikzmark{bottom 2}
end{enumerate}

VerticalBrace[ultra thick, blue]{top 1 -| bottom 1}{bottom 1}{The first two items}
VerticalBrace[ultra thick, blue]{top 2 -| longest 2}{bottom 2 -| longest 2}{The last four items}
