Additional information: - As 4. shows the problem seems to be related to some sizes (which used to work in Emacs 22). - When you jump in an buffer in such an way, that the (invisible) umlauts would appear at the same position where some other character was drawn before, theses other characters stay on the screen. So it seems that on the position of the umlauts no redraw takes place at all. cheers sascha --=20 Sascha Wilde : "I heard that if you play the Windows CD backward, you : get a satanic message.
