The Label control is used to display text captions — for example, titles for controls that do not have a Caption property.
The user cannot change the text displayed in a label during program execution.
The main property of the Label is Caption, which sets the text displayed inside it.
Example: Different Types of Labels
The following example demonstrates different types of labels:
- a simple label,
- a label with a picture,
- a label with a border,
- and a label with word wrapping.
Steps to implement the project:
- Create a form and place three labels on it.
- Prepare an image file. In this case: D:\flags.jpg.
- In the form module, type the code, which will set the label parameters during form initialization.
Key Properties of Label
- Picture → loads an image into the label.
- PicturePosition → defines the relative position of the image and the text.
- BorderStyle → specifies whether the label is displayed with or without a border.
