Arguments: standard-object
Returns or sets with setf the value of the tabs property of the argument. The value of this property is a list of distances from the left edge of the control. The distances are measured in pixels for outline and list controls, and in character widths for text-editing controls. These are spacing guides for text whenever tab characters appear in a displayed string. For list controls, these values specify the location of columns when the list control displays multiple columns.
tabs is a
property of the outline
, dropping-outline
, multi-item-list
,
single-item-list
, multi-line-editable-text
, text-edit-pane
, rich-edit
, and rich-edit-pane
classes.
If the rich-edit
has
its tabstop
property turned off (the default), then pressing the tab key will
insert a tab character into the control's text. If
the tabstop
property is turned on, then pressing the tab key will move the focus
to the next widget, and control-semicolon must be pressed in order to
insert a tab character interactively. A comtab or virtual-key-down method could be
supplied to make some other keychord insert a tab-character by doing
something like
(write-char #\tab rich-edit-pane)
