I am using report
class and have been using framebox[linewidth]rule0pt2cm
to create an empty box with a certain height. Now, I would like to write in that empty box. By referring to How can I write something in a box with makeemptybox1.8in?, I achieved the following:

As you can see makenoemptybox
makes a bigger vertical space compared to framebox
(refer to the coloured arrows). How can I make the vertical space made by makenoemptybox
follows that of framebox
?

Perhaps I am missing something, but if you just want an empty box of the same size, why not just usemakenonemptybox2cm
?

inmakenonemptybox
should have beenparbox[c][#1]
to start with, because whenframebox[linewidth]rule0pt2cm
is used the total height is 2cm +2fboxsep
+2fboxrule
. To do the same withmakenonemptybox
for the height it thus should beparbox[c][#1]
when#1

. Besides, removingfboxsep
makes no sense if not removing alsofboxrule

Use in the definition of makenonemptybox
the same method you use for framebox
to close current paragraph. Of course, that will restrict its usage to list environments.

you could also drop theitem

Perhaps I am missing something, but if you just want an empty box of the same size, why not just use
makenonemptybox2cm
?â Peter Grill

side remark: as got clarified later the
parbox[c][dimexpr#1-2fboxsep]
inmakenonemptybox
should have beenparbox[c][#1]
to start with, because whenframebox[linewidth]rule0pt2cm
is used the total height is 2cm +2fboxsep
+2fboxrule
. To do the same withmakenonemptybox
for the height it thus should beparbox[c][#1]
when#1
is2cm
. Besides, removingfboxsep
makes no sense if not removing alsofboxrule
, then total height including frame and separation would be2cm
. Butframebox[linewidth]rule0pt2cm
gives2cm+2fboxsep+2fboxrule
