Property: string Text

• Declared in: RT.Util.Controls.LabelEx
• Overrides: Control.Text

Declaration

string Text

Summary

Text displayed in the label. See remarks for EggsML supported. Setting this property also changes the value of the LabelEx.TabStop property depending on whether the text contains any links. To achieve deviant behaviour, set TabStop immediately after setting Text.

Remarks

• * = bold.
• / = italics.
• _ = underline.
• + = marks a section of text as nowrap.
• <XYZ>{ ... } = make the text enclosed in curlies a link. XYZ can be any string and will be passed in for the LabelEx.LinkActivated event.
• <XYZ>= ... = = colour the text enclosed in equals sign in the colour designated by XYZ (e.g. “Red”).
• [ ... ] = adds a bullet point to the beginning of a paragraph. (Enclose the entire paragraph without its trailing newline, otherwise behaviour is weird.)
