# Tab Stops
> Tab stops are useful, if you are unclear of what they are, [here is a link explaining](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_stop). It enables side by side text which is nicely laid out without the need for tables, or constantly pressing space bar.

Simply declare the tab stops on the paragraph, as shown below. Use the tab character `\t` to indicate the tab position within the `text` property of a `TextRun`. Adding multiple `tabStops` will mean you can add additional `\t` characters until the desired `tabStop` is selected. Example is shown below.
## Example
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [new TextRun({ text: "Hey everyone", bold: true}), new TextRun("\t11th November 1999")],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
],
});
```
The example above will create a left aligned text, and a right aligned text on the same line. The laymans approach to this problem would be to either use text boxes or tables. Not ideal!
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [new TextRun("\t\tSecond tab stop here I come!")],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
{
type: TabStopType.LEFT,
position: 1000,
},
],
});
```
The above shows the use of two tab stops, and how to select/use it.
You can add multiple tab stops of the same `type` too.
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [new TextRun("Multiple \ttab \tstops!")],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: 1000,
},
],
});
```
## Left Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.LEFT,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the left side.
## Center Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.CENTER,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the center.
## Right Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the left side.
## Max Right Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
],
});
```
This will create a tab stop on the very edge of the right hand side. Handy for right aligning and left aligning text on the same line.

# Tabs and Tab Stops
## Tab Stops
> Tab stops are useful, if you are unclear of what they are, [here is a link explaining](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tab_stop). It enables side by side text which is nicely laid out without the need for tables, or constantly pressing space bar.
!> **Note**: The unit of measurement for a tab stop is in [DXA](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14360183/default-wordml-unit-measurement-pixel-or-point-or-inches)

Simply declare the tab stops on the paragraph, as shown below. Use the tab character `\t` or add the `new Tab()` child to indicate the tab position within the `text` property of a `TextRun`. Adding multiple `tabStops` will mean you can add additional `\t` characters until the desired `tabStop` is selected. Example is shown below.
### Example
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [
new TextRun({ text: "Hey everyone", bold: true }),
new TextRun("\t11th November 1999"),
new TextRun({
children: [new Tab(), "11th November 1999"],
}),
],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
],
});
```

{
type: TabStopType.LEFT,
position: 1000,
},
],
});
```

You can add multiple tab stops of the same `type` too.
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [new TextRun("Multiple \ttab \tstops!")],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: 1000,
},
],
});
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
children: [
new TextRun({
children: ["Multiple ", new Tab(), "tab ", new Tab(), "stops!"],
}),
],
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: 1000,
},
],
});
```
### Left Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.LEFT,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the left side.
### Center Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.CENTER,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the center.
### Right Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: 2268,
},
],
});
```
2268 is the distance from the left side.
### Max Right Tab Stop
```ts
const paragraph = new Paragraph({
tabStops: [
{
type: TabStopType.RIGHT,
position: TabStopPosition.MAX,
},
],
});
```
This will create a tab stop on the very edge of the right hand side. Handy for right aligning and left aligning text on the same line.
## Positional Tabs
> Positional tab allow you to create a tab stop that is relative to the margin, or the page. This is useful if you want to create a table of contents, or a table of figures.
They are easier to use than the normal tab stops, as you can use the `PositionalTab` class to create a tab stop, and then add the text to the `TextRun` children. Useful for most cases.
![Word Positional Tabs](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/26860966/209019464-d4b50236-c324-4cdb-8139-b9d172b1b993.png "Word Positional Tabs")
### Example
```ts
new Paragraph({
children: [
new TextRun("Full name"),
new TextRun({
children: [
new PositionalTab({
alignment: PositionalTabAlignment.RIGHT,
relativeTo: PositionalTabRelativeTo.MARGIN,
leader: PositionalTabLeader.DOT,
}),
"John Doe",
],
bold: true,
}),
],
}),
```
### Options
| Option | Type | Description | Possible Values |
| ---------- | ------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| alignment | `PositionalTabAlignment` | The alignment of the tab stop | `LEFT`, `RIGHT`, `CENTER` |
| relativeTo | `PositionalTabRelativeTo` | The relative position of the tab stop | `MARGIN`, `INDENT` |
| leader | `PositionalTabLeader` | The leader of the tab stop | `NONE`, `DOT`, `HYPHEN`, `UNDERSCORE`, `MIDDLE_DOT`, `EQUALS` |
