You are right but I always have pretty entities turned on, so it doesn't bother me that much. Wasn't it changed to \emsp (m-dash) so it would look better in exported HTML or LaTeX? Otherwise, I would suggest something like \-- or \__ I just tested the alignment in a generic table. I have set \emsp to be displayed as as dash ("-"). An explicit re-align of a table containing this entity works, but the auto-alignment that happens while you type does not. Ciao, Stormking
