The Horizontal Ruler
// [|How to Use the Horizontal Ruler] [|Practice Page] //

To move margins:

 * 1) Position your pointer over the left or right margin on the horizontal ruler [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392681033 caption="Double arrow pointer on the left margin"]].
 * 2) Drag the margin to the position you want.

To move indents:

 * 1) Position your pointer over the indent marker on the horizontal ruler.
 * 2) Drag the marker to the position you want.

To set tabs:

 * 1) Click the tab selector at the left end of the horizontal ruler to change it to the type of tab you want.
 * 2) Click the ruler in the location you want.

Types of indent:

 * The **First Line Indent**[[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392601033]] positions the first line of a paragraph.
 * The **Hanging Indent**[[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392611033]] is the triangle on top on the square. It positions the start of the second and all following lines of text in a paragraph.
 * The **Left Indent**[[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392631033]] is the square underneath the hanging indent. It moves the hanging indent and first line indent together, keeping a constant space between them.
 * The **Right Indent**[[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392641033]] positions the right indent of a paragraph.

Types of tab stops:

 * [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA060446361033]] **Left Tab** sets the start position of text that will then run to the right.
 * [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA060446311033]] **Center Tab** sets the position of the middle of the text.
 * [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA060446351033]] **Right Tab** sets the right end of the text. As you type, the text moves to the right.
 * [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA060446331033]] **Decimal Tab** aligns text around a decimal point. Independent of the length of the figure, the decimal point will be in the same position.
 * [[image:http://office.microsoft.com/global/images/default.aspx?AssetID=ZA010392671033]] **Bar Tab** doesn't position text. It inserts a vertical bar at the tab position.
