This proposal is not finished yet.
Proposal for a new tabulator manager:
- that is easier to understand
- improves the speed for defining tabulators at specific positions.
- While the "In-Frame" editing, the user can easily add tabulators by clicking in the ruler at the top of the window.
- In the Text Properties, under Column & Text Distances, there is a tabulator manager that has its own small GUI. Based on some sort of ruler hich has no relationship with the width of the text in the document.
- The same pseudo ruler is used in the style manager.
The user:
- creates left aligned tabulators by clicking on the ruler and can then move them,
- converts them to other types of tabulators by right clicking on them, and
- can pull them out of the ruler to delete them.
In the tabulator manager and in the styles, the user can use the provided fields to move existing tabulators to a specific place.
- The visual creation of tabulators during the "In-Frame" editing is fine as is and does not need any change.
- Both the tabulator manager and the style dialog should drop the visual creation of tabulator and use a widget that is easier to understand and is geared towards adding the tabulators at exact positions.

After creating your Widget in Qt Designer, right-click on the background of the widget and select "Lay out > Lay out Horizontally" from the bottom of the context-menu.

We should subbclass QListWidgetItem and reimplement its < operator.
