Examples

Shows how to work with a document’s collection of tab stops.

doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc)
tab_stops = builder.paragraph_format.tab_stops
# 72 points is one "inch" on the Microsoft Word tab stop ruler.
tab_stops.add(aw.TabStop(72.0))
tab_stops.add(aw.TabStop(432.0, aw.TabAlignment.RIGHT, aw.TabLeader.DASHES))
self.assertEqual(2, tab_stops.count)
self.assertFalse(tab_stops[0].is_clear)
self.assertNotEqual(tab_stops[0], tab_stops[1])
# Every "tab" character takes the builder's cursor to the location of the next tab stop.
builder.writeln('Start\tTab 1\tTab 2')
paragraphs = doc.first_section.body.paragraphs
self.assertEqual(2, paragraphs.count)
# Each paragraph gets its tab stop collection, which clones its values from the document builder's tab stop collection.
self.assertEqual(paragraphs[0].paragraph_format.tab_stops, paragraphs[1].paragraph_format.tab_stops)
#Assert.are_not_same(paragraphs[0].paragraph_format.tab_stops, paragraphs[1].paragraph_format.tab_stops)
# A tab stop collection can point us to tab_stops before and after certain positions.
self.assertEqual(72.0, tab_stops.before(100.0).position)
self.assertEqual(432.0, tab_stops.after(100.0).position)
# We can clear a paragraph's tab stop collection to revert to the default tabbing behavior.
paragraphs[1].paragraph_format.tab_stops.clear()
self.assertEqual(0, paragraphs[1].paragraph_format.tab_stops.count)
doc.save(ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'TabStopCollection.tab_stop_collection.docx')
