Note: The number of Spaces inserted depends on the position on line and on the {{field|Settings:Edit|Tab Size}} setting.
 Note: While using fixed-width font, the resulting visual blank space of inserted Spaces should be the same, as if a Tab character was inserted. This, however, does not always work with proportional fonts. In proportional fonts, size of a Space character often differ from font's base character width, from which tab stops are calculated. Therefore, there might be difference between real Tab size and accumulated size of Spaces inserted instead of a Tab. This option is however primarily meant for fixed-width fonts, and thus any potential difference while using proportional font is not considered wrong.
