Hi,
For an org table that contains images, the bar used to delimit each cell doesn’t look good:
I wish the bar can be longer. Is it possible to draw a bar that takes the full height of the line? I tried unicode box drawing characters, they don't work either.
Thanks.
Yuan

You can use something like help-fns.el does:
(insert "\n\n"
(eval-when-compile
(propertize "\n" 'face
'(:height 0.1 :inverse-video t :extend t)))
"\n")
but without the smaller :height.

Exactly what I needed, thanks! What I end up using:
(insert (propertize "x" 'display '(space :width (1))
'face '(:inverse-video t)))
