Label component
A label component is a single line of text. You can specify that a label be formatted with HTML.
You can also control alignment and sizing of a label. Label components don’t have borders, cannot
be focused, and don’t broadcast any events.
Use a Label component to create a text label for another component in a form, such as a “Name:”
label to the left of a TextInput field that accepts a user's name. If you’re building an application
using components based on version 2 (v2) of the Macromedia Component Architecture, it’s a
good idea to use a Label component instead of a plain text field because you can use styles to
maintain a consistent look and feel.
Label parameters
The following are authoring parameters that you can set for each Label component instance in
the Property inspector or in the Component Inspector panel:
text indicates the text of the label; the default value is Label.
html indicates whether the label is formatted with HTML (true) or not (false). If the html
parameter is set to
true, a Label cannot be formatted with styles. The default value is false.
