It seems that when an anomalous string for tabStops is set, LC uses a hybrid of
tabStops and tabWidths.
I have the following tabStops in a table field (named f55"): "20,10,80".
It would appear that the second stop is to the left of the first stop.
Something similar to this has crashed LC with at least one user. For me,
though, LC seems to set the first tabStop at 20, then sets a tabWidth of 10,
and finally the last tabStop at 80.
on mouseUp
set the tabstops of fld "f55" to "20,10,80" -- hybrid tabs
wait until the mouseclick
set the tabwidths of fld "f55" to "20,10,80" --expands to expected values
end mouseUp
Feature or bug?
I'd say feature, because it's doing exactly what you asked it to do. If
you want to set tab widths use the tabWidths property.
