Vertical tab in Delphi string on Android using FMX

could someone explain me, why horizontal tab in string works on Windows, but not on Android ? Using Delphi 10.1 Berlin, FireMonkey. Or how to use tab and other special chars on Android :)

procedure TFMain.Text1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Text1.Text:= 'first:' + chr(9) + '1' + #10 + 'second:' + #9 + '2';
end;

Result on Windows:

first:  1
second: 2

Result on Android:

first: 1
second: 2

What I need - align text in columns in TText, TMemo, hints and so on. Best regards.

Vertical tab, horizontal tab, white spaces. Terminology is shaky. But what characters exactly are in Text1.Text after that code is executed? Please list the character codes. – Tom Brunberg

Maybe is a problem of object size; Resize the height of Text1 for greater size and mark Text1.wordwrap =True
