Declaration

Source position: stdctrls.pp line 943

public property TCustomMemo.WantTabs : Boolean
  read FWantTabs
  write SetWantTabs
  default False;

Description

The Tab key is normally used to move the input focus to the next control, and does not add Tab characters to the text.

When WantTabs is True, the Tab key inserts a Tab character into the text, instead of moving the focus to then next control. Even if WantTabs is True, the Tab key can be used to navigate into the control. But it prevents use of Tab to exit the control.
