Hi all,

I am at a bit of a loss regarding tabs. I am working on a catalogue that requires me to use tabs rather than tables (I wont go in to this, but it is catalogue software that collects data and exports it in to indesign)

is there any way I can copy my TAB menu style (copy/paste) so that I can use the same tab style on my next product??

    Hi,

    Why not use a "Grey" para style everywhere and finish by a simple F/R?

    … as: Find ^.+\r\K. + "Grey" para style  |  Replace by: "White" para style

    (^/)

    Tab settings are included in Paragraph Styles, so all you have to do is save tabbed line as a paragraph style and apply it to the other lines.

    Apply Style, then Next Style - grey and white styles each with the other as Next Style would work nicely here.
