Excellent timing on this issue. I rarely work with tabstops, but yesterday.... In this case, a table field locks Rev when trying to use the inspector, and I have to force quit. In addition, the tab stops field does not expand..
It seems like if I am in pointer tool mode and merely click on the field and bring up the inspector I get the blank script error notification with the one button 'Script' (which takes you no where). Looks like a patch could be done to one of the Rev stacks to fix the problem. Of course I could put in to the message box "set the tabstops of field textLines to "20,30,45,78", but the feature should still work. My work around is to delete the field, make a new one, set everything but the tabs, then use the plugin 'revTabRuler', then try to remember not to ever click on the field for editing.
