Hi,
As you'll see in the attached, I have dots going from one word to another using tabs created by putting a period in "align on". I'd like to maintain those tabs but remove the dots. However, I can't seem to remove the dots. I thought I could just select the type and delete the period from "align on" but its grayed out. How can I resolve this?
Thanks!
There are two more steps before deleting the period from the Leader field to make this work:
Step 1: Select the text
Step 2: Select the tab stop (You have three, I have one. None of yours are selected.)
Step 3: Delete anything in the Leader field, as Monica said. Mine has a period and a space.
To clarify: I just realized that both of us answered for best practices: right-aligned tab with a dot leader.
The four tab types are Left | Center | Right | Decimal Justified.
The Align On only works with Decimal Justified, and yours are Left- and Right-aligned.
If you were change a tab to the fourth option, you could align to a period, close paren, a dash, or any character you choose.
This is what a Decimal Justified tab looks like:
This is similar to what you have.
