ListBox_SetTabStops macro (windowsx.h)

Sets the tab-stop positions in a list box. You can use this macro or send the LB_SETTABSTOPS message explicitly.

Syntax

void ListBox_SetTabStops(
   hwndCtl,
   cTabs,
   lpTabs
);

Parameters

hwndCtl

Type: HWND

A handle to the control.

cTabs

Type: int

The number of elements in the lpTabs array.

lpTabs

Type: int*

A pointer to an array of integers containing the tab stops. The integers represent the number of quarters of the average character width for the font that is selected into the list box. For example, a tab stop of 4 is placed at 1.0 character units, and a tab stop of 6 is placed at 1.5 average character units. However, if the list box is part of a dialog box, the integers are in dialog template units. The tab stops must be sorted in ascending order; backward tabs are not allowed.

Return value

None
