Left tab won't move in Pages for iPad

I have taken a screen shot to show you my issue. I have deleted all the tab stops and nothing helps. I CANNOT move the left margin back to where it is supposed to be.

BAL,

I don't see a text selection in your screen shot. The Tab Settings only apply to the text that is selected and the Paragraph that the Insertion Cursor is resting in. Right now, the cursor is sitting on a blank paragraph. If possible, select everything in the screen shot and then drag the tab stops off the ruler.

Thanks Jerrold,

I selected all the text and there were still not tab stops. But while all the text was selected I dragged the rectagle tab adjustor all the way to the right and then the left triangle would move back to the left. This seems strange to me, but it worked. Thanks,

Brett

I'm glad you figured out what I wrote. My post looks like it was run over by a truck.
