Use the Tabs dialog box, which you can access from the Format menu.

It is true that there's no way to *change* a tab setting through the Tabs
dialog, and you can't even fine-tune them because if you try to set a tab too close to an existing one, the setting doesn't "take" unless you delete the existing one first. What you might find helpful, therefore, is to press Alt while dragging the tab. This not only allows you to drag the tab stop in finer increments but also displays the measurement so that you can set it more precisely. -- Suzanne S.
