SelHangingIndent, SelIndent, SelRightIndent Properties

Syntax
object.SelHangingIndent [= integer]
object.SelIndent [= integer]
object.SelRightIndent [= integer]
The SelHangingIndent, SelIndent, and SelRightIndent properties syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| integer | An integer that determines the amount of indent. These properties use the scale mode units of the Form object containing the RichTextBox control. |
Remarks
For the affected paragraph(s), the SelIndent property specifies the distance between the left edge of the RichTextBox control and the left edge of the text that is selected or added. Similarly, the SelRightIndent property specifies the distance between the right edge of the RichTextBox control and the right edge of the text that is selected or added.
The SelHangingIndent property specifies the distance between the left edge of the first line of text in the selected paragraph(s) (as specified by the SelIndent property) and the left edge of subsequent lines of text in the same paragraph(s).
These properties return zero (0) if the selection spans multiple paragraphs with different margin settings.
