Label

The label control in the Pane Designer inserts a label in the pane. A label is simply a text that should be shown in the pane. When the label control is selected in the ribbon, it is inserted below the actual pane area.

Drag the label to the desired place in the pane:

The following properties can be changed for the Label:

• Brushes

• Layout

• Common Properties

• Text

These sections can be found in the Art Board to the right in the Pane Designer.

Brushes

Change the color of the label text by using the brush in the art board. Changing color can be done in two ways:

• Dragging the marker in the brush area to the desired color.

• Entering a specific # color code in the defined area.

Layout

• Width: Can be changed in the art board or by dragging the bottom-right corner of the control to the right width.
• Height : Can be changed in the art board or by dragging the bottom right corner of the control to the right height.
• Opacity

In the Layout section, the position of the label can also be viewed. By dragging the label control to wished position, the X and Y position can be viewed. When positioning many controls in a pane, it can be helpful to view the X position of the controls to make sure that they are positioned straight under each other.

Use the "Snap to Grid" feature for the pane to allow more precision when positioning the controls.
