Tab going to a new line when end of line is reached

[Guest]

In most text editors, when you hold the tab key down, the cursor goes from tab stop to tab stop across the line. When end of the line is reached, the cursor goes to the next line, again goes from tab stop to tab stop on the new line, and so on. You end up with multiple lines.

In TLF, with tabStops set, holding the tab key down, the cursor goes from tab stop to tab stop across the line. But when the cursor reaches the end of the line, it doesn't go to the next line. The cursor stays at the end of the line while more tab characters are inserted into the text flow. There is always only one line.

Is there a way for TLF to have the tab key go to the next line when the cursor reaches the end of the line?

Thanks for the info.

It seems a TLF bug. We will fix it soon. Thanks!

Thank you very much for the update.

We also discovered that, any line which has the previous line ending in a tab, any leading tabs will not show. For example (all in the same <p>):

Line one ...<tab/>

<tab/>Line two

The leading tab on line two will not display. If the previous line does not end with <tab/>, then the leading tab on the following line shows. Is this related?

Also, will the fix come in a 2.x update? Any time frame?

Thanks again for the info.

Some one is working on it. I think it will be fixed soon if it's not a player bug.

It will be released at http://sourceforge.net/projects/tlf.adobe/files/3.0/.

We find that FTE ignores spaces under several situations. We are talking with Player team.
