Default Wordpad change tab-chars width in spaces

Hello Auric__,

That's... weird. Did you happen to set some tab stops?


Nope. I just re-checked, the tabstops window shows none.

I did find that setting too, but when trying to use it I found I could not
select a "chars" measurement. Only inches, cm, points and picas where
available. And those seem to be aimed at non-fixed-width char display modi.

I did not find a "restore to defaults" for it either ...

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

just
6 spaces, instead of the (by me) expected 8.

Does anyone know how/where to adjust this ?
