..."FWIW, LC recently introduced a new property, the tabWidths, which will accept those values." Are you implying that the tabStop list that Alejandro posted is somehow not acceptable? I like the "tabwidths", which is simpler to get my head around than the "tabStops", which requires just a little more effort to compose. But he is hanging LC with that particular set of stops.

FWIW, LC recently introduced a new property, the tabWidths, which will accept those values. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/FourthWorldSys _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
