tabs display incorrectly in string control

Even the RichTextBox doesn't appear to show tabs correctly.  I can type in it and press <tab> and this displays correctly, but string input with coded /t in it does not display correctly :(. 

 

I have set the property "AcceptsTab" to "True" but I might be missing another property....

The problem is the fonts... monospace vs. a proportional font.  Letters have a different width with proportional fonts, where with monospace fonts each character occupies a fixed block. 

 

Change the font on that indicator to courier or some terminal-ish fixed-width font.
