It somehow didn't help. I did "M-x org-reload" after setting this, but it didn't help spanning the italic in my case over several lines. Hmm. I do find it sometimes needs to be "poked" a few times to really take -- sometimes reloading org more than once, or calling "org-mode" in a buffer that's already org-mode. Often hitting M-q to refill the paragraph is enough to do the trick. It won't show the italic over even a single line break? E
