      Hi there

      I know this may seem bare basic to some of you guys but i have tried several times reading the online topics for the answer, but can’t seem to figure it out, maybe i’m just a little slow.

      So, i have a tab button on my keyboard ” ? ” and when i press it, it indents the text a certain amount, but it indents a little too much for me, i would like it to be 5mm.

      How do i change the amount it indents, i.e. the default amount, when i first load a blank document, before any of my own preferences are set. I tried messing around with the ‘Tab’ field but the variables are all set at zero, yet it indents a certain amount, i can’t figure this out, any help would be most welcome!

      Thank you!

      Andy

      That’s what the Tabs panel is for (type > tabs). More here: https://creativepro.com/tab-leaders-part-1-separating-columns-of-text-with-dots.php and other articles on the site.
