Style guide
"Balkenzeile" is the term for a horizontal bar going across a page, in this case containing a heading. This is taken from a style guide, on a section describing the size of margins, fonts etc.
Can anyone think of a decent way of expressing "Balkenzeile", or - failing that - would "horizontal bar" be enough.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Many thanks

You said it yourself: the "Balkenzeile" contains a ***heading*** so here we go. I wouldn't be able to make a definite choice from the options given at the quoted URL, though.

I'd call it
reversed headline inside a solid color box,
but the printer would call it "reversed headline box"
