No Tabs in tables?

[mac_heibu]

TAB is used as a command to jump to the next table cell.

Is it possible, to place text tabs in table cells and jump to them?

We don't have that ability and I suspect we wont

Thank you for answering!

If you make an ordinary text box and add a tab, you can copy and paste this tab character into the table. A bit clunky but it seems to work.

This could be interesting to implement. I have made some tables with tab stops before on InDesign, usually on cells where content is indented. On InDesign you use ALT+TAB to enter a tab stop inside a cell.

Maybe in the future it could added this way too.

Thought I tried this already and failed. But you are right: Copying a TAB into the cell works! Thank you!

If you place text into a cell and style it with a bullet, the tab character from the bullet style appears in the cell.
