[Solved] Flush right

Hello: I have used WordPerfect for many years. It has a feature called "Flush Right" which alllows the user to very quickly insert text at various places on the same line. For example, in a footer, page number aligned on the right margin, revision date on the left margin but both on the same line. Is there a quick process to do this in OO? Many thanks. John

simply insert two (thee?) tabs between page number and revision date.

Add a right-aligned tab to the style. You do that by adding a tab, then manually setting the alignment to right.

The default "Header" and "Footer" styles already have three-part tabs defined, all you have to do is type the tabs, as Caracalla suggested.

The structure is:

LeftContent <tab> MiddleContent <tab> RightContent
