The view doesn't look right because the face used doesn't match the rest of the faces used in my org buffers. Specifically, the font used for column view is /smaller/ than the default font for all other faces. When I ask for information on the org-column face, via customize-face, I get the following (edited for brevity): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Org Column face: (sample) Hide Face State: CHANGED outside Customize; operating on it here may be unreliable. Face for column display of entry properties. Hide Rest [...] Groups: Org Faces Choice: Value Menu Attributes: [X] Font Family: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono [ ] Font Foundry: * [ ] Width: * [X] Height: Value Menu Height in 1/10 pt: 97 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Note the setting for height. I have a custom-set-faces in my .emacs which sets the /default/ face to have height 120. However, the custom-set-faces is *after* all my other customisations, including loading org so maybe it is not surprising that the org-column face has what appears to be the original default value. Nevertheless, all my other org faces appear as I would expect them to with a height of 120. The curious bit is that customize-face tells me that this face has been "changed outside customize" and yet I do not change this face *anywhere* that I can see (having grepped to my heart's content...). If I do use customize to set the height to 120, everything looks just fine but I would rather not do this as I would like all faces to follow whatever customisation I do for the default face (especially as I use a different default for different computers, such as laptop versus desktop, but I have almost all other configurations shared between them). Can anybody help shed any light on this? I hope some of what I said above makes sense...
