As the sign text takes two columns, the minimum supported value for 'numberwidth' is 3 with 'signcolumn' set to 'number'. When 'signcolumn' is set to 'number', I think we should change the value of 'numberwidth' to a minimum of 3 (if it is less than 3)? - Yegappan > > Add the sign (named piet) in the example off :help :sign with the line > changed to 1 and no file. > For me, the sign takes three columns, ">> ".
