Description
Text alignment using tabs can be handled automatically within PTC ALD, via the use of tab triggers. A tab trigger is a specific character set to automatically apply a tab at a specified position when encountered by PTC ALD during processing. The <?ttrigjump> command enables you to jump to a specific tab position applied in this way.
Syntax
<?ttrigjump tab number:n>
tab number
The number of the tab to which PTC ALD should jump
Additional Information
This method of aligning text automatically is particularly useful when handling fixed-format sections of text, for example a table containing financial information.
