Prima::Label - static text widget The class is designed for display of text, and assumes no user interaction. The text output capabilities include wrapping, horizontal and vertical alignment, and automatic widget resizing to match text extension. If text contains a tilde-escaped ( hot ) character, the label can explicitly focus the specified widget upon press of the character key, what feature is useful for dialog design. my $label = Prima::Label-> create( text => 'Enter ~name:', focusLink => $name_inputline, alignment => ta::Center, );

Properties
One of the following ta::XXX constants: ta::Left ta::Center ta::Right Selects the horizontal text alignment. Default value: ta::Left If 1, the widget height is automatically changed as text extensions change. Default value: 0 If 1, the widget width is automatically changed as text extensions change. Default value: 1 Points to a widget, which is explicitly focused when the user presses the combination of a hot key with the Alt key. Prima::Label does not provide a separate property to access the hot key value, however it can be read from the {accel} variable. Default value: undef. If 0, the tilde ( ~ ) character is collapsed from the text, and the hot character is underlined. When the user presses combination of the escaped character with the Alt key, the focusLink widget is explicitly focused. If 1, the text is showed as is, and no hot character is underlined. Key combinations with Alt key are not recognized. Default value: 0 Used to determine if the last line of text should be drawn if it can not be vertically fit in the widget interior. If 1, the last line is shown even if not visible in full. If 0, only full lines are drawn. Default value: 1 If 1, the text is wrapped if it can not be horizontally fit in the widget interior. If 0, the text is not wrapped unless new line characters are present in the text. New line characters signal line wrapping with no respect to wordWrap property value. Default value: 0 One of the following ta::XXX constants: ta::Top ta::Middle or ta::Center ta::Bottom Selects the vertical text alignment. NB: ta::Middle value is not equal to ta::Center's, however the both constants produce equal effect here. Default value: ta::Top Dmitry Karasik, <dmitry@karasik.eu.org>. the Prima manpage, the Prima::Widget manpage, examples/label.pl
