API reference / Common / Engine types / TextTabStop
Interface: TextTabStop
One tab stop (CT_TextTabStop / CT_TabStop): where a tab jumps, how the following text aligns there, and what fills the gap.
Positions are in points from the column's left edge — Word measures stops from the column margin, unaffected by the paragraph's own indents.
