Label Control

Back

Definition and Usage

The Label control is used to display a text on a mobile device.

The text can be specified by the text attribute or as the content of the Label element. If the text is specified in both ways, the inner text takes precedence. However, if the text is programmatically set, the inner text is replaced with this text.
