Hi Rob,

Create a field with a wide left margin, set the TABS, put some tabs and text
into it and turn on the "vgrid"...


Et voila, completely "out of sync" :-(

Bug or feature?

Or just the way that it works, Klaus.

I was afraid of that ;-)

I believe tabStops are absolute positions: tabStop pixels from the left of the field or the last tabStop.

Sure, makes sense...

I have not tried this, but I believe you can obtain the same "out of sync"ness by radically changing the font size of the field's contents.

No, a tab at 200 is a tab at 200.

You need to account for your margins and font size if you want vGrids to change dynamically when margins &/or font size changes.

Only one size and font and style...

Please try it out by yourself, you have to see it ;-)

I simply cannot use the "vgrid" to prevent text from "displacing" the next tabs...

I will have to "reorder" my list field entries, but then i will have more "vgrid" lines
in my field than i want... Too bad :-(
