Aligning / Setting Tab stops

[marc]

Hi,

I am fairly new to pl/sql developer. I have version 7.0.3.1123.

I am editing a fairly large procedure with hundreds of declared variables. The alignment and spacing of these declarations is ugly.

Is there an easy way to get it lined up or do I have to painstainkingly go through each line?

Example:

vii_std_dev pwui_supplier_process_data.std_dev%type;
vii_qty_rejected pwui_supplier_process_data.qty_rejected%type;
vii_pct_tol pwui_iscdr_pcert_data.percent_of_tol%type;
vii_supplier_code pwui_iscdr_pcert_data.supplier_code%type;
vii_item_id sfpl_item_desc_master_all.item_id%type;
vii_characteristic_id saciq_char_def.characteristic_id%type;
vii_drawing_no pwui_iscdr_pcert_data.drawing_no%type;
vii_drawing_chg pwui_iscdr_pcert_data.drawing_chg%type;

I would like all the types to be aligned.
When I try tabbing, the tabs seem random and I cannot find how/where to set them.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Marc

If you go to Tools > Preferences > Editor to set Tab preferences. If you enable the "Smart tab" option, you can align the first item to the desired position, and a single tab at the lines below will automatically align to the line above.
