TdxRichEditControlBase.WantTabs Property

Specifies if an end user can press the Tab key to insert tab characters into text.

#Declaration

Delphi
property WantTabs: Boolean read; write; default True;

#Property Value

Type Default
Boolean True

#Remarks

A Tab keystroke inserts a tab character into an open document at the caret position. Set the WantTabs property to False to allow the application form to process Tab keystrokes rather than the Rich Edit control. A Tab keystroke moves focus to other control on the form in this mode.

The WantTabs property’s default value is True.
