Re: [Orgmode] Underlines and strike-through lines in column view

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Wanrong,

I have lost track a bit of the details, so in order to fix this, can
you please make me a test case with a minimal .emacs that contrains  
your face definitions, and a small example file.  Please make it work  
so that

emacs -q -l minimal.emacs

will reproduce the problem.  Please also include the exact version of  
Emacs you are using.

Thanks.

- Carsten
