Tabs

Tabs are special symbols that can be used for lining up text or numbers in tables, or for aligning text to a specific location in the document.

The width of each particular tab symbol depends on the position of this symbol within a paragraph line and the Tab Settings of the paragraph.

 

The Tab Settings include the following.

 

Default Tab Positions are displayed on the Ruler as small marks.

The distance between each two consecutive marks is the same (equals to the Default Tab Position width).

 

Custom Tab Positions are displayed in the Ruler Core.

Each Custom Tab Position has the following characteristics.

 

You can adjust the Tab Settings for the selected paragraphs through the Format | Tabs... command.

You can also use the Ruler for the same purposes.
