Yes, org-string-width eventually calls string-width, so that behaves "correctly" as far as it goes, but unfortunately that's not where the value in the text properties comes from... 《蛙》 123456 Doesn't that line up for you? Those bracket characters come with their own "whitespace", maybe this is clearer: 正能量 123456 One Chinese character should definitely take up two screen columns. I'd love to file a bug report but I honestly don't know where this comes from. If it's not org-add-props or relatives, what emacs function is responsible? Thanks for the swift responses! Eric
