I had this problem in OriginPro since years now, but now it bothers me enough to write it down here:

Whenever you have a textbox in a graph which
- contains tabs (\t)
- has the position|anchor set to anything besides "Left - *"

The resulting textbox is positioned wrong, when you click on it it shows an item frame which is out of bounds of the actual text box and all the tabs are calculated wrong. When you try to move it around it gets even weirder.

A text box with this text:
Saturated:	H2
Electrolyte:	0.1 mol/L KOH
Rotation:	{rpm} rpm
Loading:	{loading} mg/cm2


And anchot to "Right - Bottom" (which is what I'm trying to do) doesnt work at all. It randomly moves over the screen.



the exact same text box with anchor to "Left - Top":



the same text box but with tabs replaced to spaces and anchor to "Right - Bottom":



Is this a bug or am I missing something here?

Hi jan.oechsler,

Instead of directly typing(copying) the tab character into the editbox, would you mind to use Origin's predefined variables?

For tab character, it is %(tab), see
https://www.originlab.com/doc/LabTalk/ref/LT-Keywords

And you need to go to object properties dialog's Programming tab, change "Link to (%,$), Substitution Level" to be 1 to make %(tab) be able to show as tab character.

The is probably the same underlying issue as reported in this forum post from earlier today:
