How can I align the page numbers generated by the index

InDesign 20.xx, PC.
I am producing a descent size index. Just a few entries have sub entries. I want the Levels to indent from the left and the numbers to align from the right hand frame edge.

In the code you must use y instead of t for that tabulator.

You need to use Right Indent Tab - not a regular tab as a separator - or in the Tab Stops of the ParaStyle definition applied in the index.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
