summary tabulation

Hello,

I am dealing with the summary tabulation. I can set all the elements as I like.

Now, I need to stop the paragraph text a bit before to avoid the text being too close to the number, as shown in the image. I tried to work on the tabulation setting as well as on indentation and spacing, but with no results.

Anyone can help me?

Thank you.

In the old days, I'd just apply No Break strategically in the TOC entries in the body text, or manual line breaks in the TOC. Both methods strike me as manual-labor-intensive. My current favorite method is to use negative last line indent in the paragraph style for the TOC entry:

Thank you for your advice, I still have an issue setting the TOC. If I set the right indent and last line ident as the same positive and negative number as you show, nothing changes.
Which setting do you use for the tabulation part?
