Default Different First TAb Stop

Is is possible to set up a style so that the first tab is less than the
following tabs, without having to set all the tabs manually?

For Example:

Tab 1: 18pt from Left
Tab 2: 50pt from Left, 32pt from Tab 1
Tab 3: 82pt from Left, 32pt from Tab 2
and so on - each further tab 32pt from the previous.

Setting Default Tab to 32 doesn't work.

Any suggestions?

The idea of styles is to hold specific formatting, including tab stops where
you actually want them. It is not necessary to change the default tab
interval to do this.
