tabulators in drawing text boxes not shown in ruler

If you add a text frame to a writer document, you cannot give it tabulators. this feature should be added.
Hi .., Can you explain fruther? I - start a Writer document, - add a frame, - enter the text in the frame (with Enter for example); then I can set the tabs by clicking on the ruler, or setting the props of the paragraph(-style). Or do you mean that you want to change position of the frame with tabs? That can be done when the anchoring of the frame is set as character (context menu, right mouse button) Maybe you mean something else? Thanks for further explanation, Cor
Ahh... I see. I can add the tabulators via the paragraph properties. They work but they do not show up in the ruler!
In my configuration (XP and 2.1) the tabs dó show up in ther ruler ...

OK. You've added a text drawing object from the toolbar Drawing. I used a text frame from the toolbar Insert or from menu Isert|Frame. That's an explanation for the difference, IMO.
MRU->OS: tabs inside drawing text boxes can only be edited via the paragraph dialog. In Draw, this is possible.
