In Qt, we have QTextOption::tabStop, QTextEdit::tabStopWidth and
QPlainTextEdit::tabStopWidth.
Neither are very good names, since the tab stop is neither a
numerical value as in the former, nor does it have any dimensions
that can be measured, as in the latter. Vertical text advances
may also be supported by Qt at some point in the future, at
which point the name would make even less sense.
At the same time, we expose the actual type of the tab stop
distance as floating point in the QTextEdit and QPlainTextEdit
API instead of always rounding it to an int.
To avoid duplicating either of these APIs in Qt Quick, we
introduce tabStopDistance as the common term instead and deprecate
the old names.
[ChangeLog][Text] Introduced tabStopDistance property in
QTextOption, QTextEdit and QPlainTextEdit as replacement for
the inconsistently named tabStop and tabStopWidth properties.
QTextOption::tabStop, QTextEdit::tabStopWidth and
QPlainTextEdit::tabStopWidth have subsequently been deprecated.
