WR ADD TAB ( area ; position ; justification ; fillCharacter ) 
Parameter Type   Description
area  Longint in 4D Write area
position  Longint in Tab location
justification  Integer in Justification value
fillCharacter  Alpha in Selected fill character

The WR ADD TAB command allows you to add a new tab at the location passed in position, measured from the left margin of the document. It also allows you to to define the fill character and the justification of the new tab stop.

This tab stop will be added to all the paragraphs of the selection. If a tab stop already exist at this location, it will be replaced by the one you just created.

position is the distance from the left margin (expressed in the document's default unit).

The justification optional parameter determines the tab stop type. You can use the following constants, found in the “WR Tabs” theme:

Constant Type Value Comment
wr left tab Longint 1 Left aligned
wr centered tab Longint 2 Centered
wr right tab Longint 3 Right aligned
wr decimal tab Longint 4 Decimal
wr vertical separator tab Longint 5 Vertical separator

If justification is omitted, a left aligned tab is created.

The fillCharacter optional parameter can be any character whose code is between 33 and 127. This character will be added using the same font as the tab stop.

If fillCharacter is omitted or if you pass an empty string, no fill character will be inserted.

Example  

The following example create a left tab stop, 50 units away from the left margin with a dot as fill character.

 WR ADD TAB(area;50;wr left tab;".")
