is it possible to define tab positions in a multiline field of polyList?

is it possible to define different font-colors for the lines of a multiline field in polyList?

I don't think so for tabStops. You might be able to do colored text by setting the column of array that hold the data to already styled livecode text (such as using the templateField to style the text and then setting the array element to the text of the templateField.

I'd like to see the multi-line type in the polygrid/polylist expanded in it capabilities to be more comparable to a livecode field. I added this enhancement request for optional scrolled for the multiline cells: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24394

You can, of course, do tabstops and colored text (and scrollbars) using a Datagrid, so there is that.
