Hi,

I saw this in InDesign and thought it might be a good idea to have it in Publisher, too.

Put the first TAB marker on desired position and by hitting "Repeat TAB" button the other TABs are created and distributed evenly. The number of TABs depends from the number of selected elements separated by TABs.

(Re)positioning the TABs could be done by:

  1. slider
  2. moving the first TAB marker to the new position and pressing the "Repeat TAB" again, or by
  3. manually entering a number for better precision.

The example in the attachment is from "The Non-Designer's InDesign Book" by Robin Williams

@Petar Petrenko,

Is what you are asking for different than the tabs control on the paragraph style dialog?  I set the default tab stop to 1 inch, then clicked on the + (plus sign) button under the Apply box to get tabs set at 1-inch increments.  I did have to click the plus sign 6 times, but that didn't take that long to do.

Yes, that's it. But, I found more logical to be on text ruler flyout..
