Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ ColourIds

enum Label::ColourIds

A set of colour IDs to use to change the colour of various aspects of the label.

These constants can be used either via the Component::setColour(), or LookAndFeel::setColour() methods.

Note that you can also use the constants from TextEditor::ColourIds to change the colour of the text editor that is opened when a label is editable.

See also: Component::setColour, Component::findColour, LookAndFeel::setColour, LookAndFeel::findColour

Enumerator
backgroundColourId	The background colour to fill the label with.
textColourId	The colour for the text.
outlineColourId	An optional colour to use to draw a border around the label. Leave this transparent to not have an outline.
backgroundWhenEditingColourId	The background colour when the label is being edited.
textWhenEditingColourId	The colour for the text when the label is being edited.
outlineWhenEditingColourId	An optional border colour when the label is being edited.

Member Function Documentation

◆ setText()

void Label::setText	(	const String &	newText,
		NotificationType	notification
	)

Changes the label text.

The NotificationType parameter indicates whether to send a change message to any Label::Listener objects if the new text is different.

◆ getText()

String Label::getText ( bool returnActiveEditorContents = false ) const

Returns the label's current text.

Parameters

returnActiveEditorContents if this is true and the label is currently being edited, then this method will return the text as it's being shown in the editor. If false, then the value returned here won't be updated until the user has finished typing and pressed the return key.

Referenced by SidePanel::getTitleText().

◆ getTextValue()

Value& Label::getTextValue ( )

noexcept

Returns the text content as a Value object.

You can call Value::referTo() on this object to make the label read and control a Value object that you supply.

References TextEditor::getFont(), and TextEditor::setFont().

◆ setFont()

void Label::setFont ( const Font & newFont )

Changes the font to use to draw the text.

See also: getFont

◆ getFont()

Font Label::getFont ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the font currently being used.

This may be the one set by setFont(), unless it has been overridden by the current LookAndFeel

See also: setFont

◆ setJustificationType()

void Label::setJustificationType ( Justification justification )

Sets the style of justification to be used for positioning the text.

(The default is Justification::centredLeft)

◆ getJustificationType()

Justification Label::getJustificationType ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the type of justification, as set in setJustificationType().

◆ setBorderSize()

void Label::setBorderSize ( BorderSize< int > newBorderSize )

Changes the border that is left between the edge of the component and the text.

By default there's a small gap left at the sides of the component to allow for the drawing of the border, but you can change this if necessary.

◆ getBorderSize()

BorderSize<int> Label::getBorderSize ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the size of the border to be left around the text.

◆ attachToComponent()

void Label::attachToComponent	(	Component *	owner,
		bool	onLeft
	)

Makes this label "stick to" another component.

This will cause the label to follow another component around, staying either to its left or above it.

Parameters

owner	the component to follow
onLeft	if true, the label will stay on the left of its component; if false, it will stay above it.

◆ getAttachedComponent()

Component* Label::getAttachedComponent ( ) const

If this label has been attached to another component using attachToComponent, this returns the other component.

Returns nullptr if the label is not attached.

◆ isAttachedOnLeft()

bool Label::isAttachedOnLeft ( ) const

noexcept

If the label is attached to the left of another component, this returns true.

Returns false if the label is above the other component. This is only relevant if attachToComponent() has been called.

◆ setMinimumHorizontalScale()

void Label::setMinimumHorizontalScale ( float newScale )

Specifies the minimum amount that the font can be squashed horizontally before it starts using ellipsis.

Use a value of 0 for a default value.

See also: Graphics::drawFittedText

◆ getMinimumHorizontalScale()

float Label::getMinimumHorizontalScale ( ) const

noexcept

Specifies the amount that the font can be squashed horizontally.

◆ setKeyboardType()

void Label::setKeyboardType ( TextInputTarget::VirtualKeyboardType type )

noexcept

Set a keyboard type for use when the text editor is shown.

◆ addListener()

void Label::addListener ( Listener * listener )

Registers a listener that will be called when the label's text changes.

◆ removeListener()

void Label::removeListener ( Listener * listener )

Deregisters a previously-registered listener.

◆ setEditable()

void Label::setEditable	(	bool	editOnSingleClick,
		bool	editOnDoubleClick = `false`,
		bool	lossOfFocusDiscardsChanges = `false`
	)

Makes the label turn into a TextEditor when clicked.

By default this is turned off.

If turned on, then single- or double-clicking will turn the label into an editor. If the user then changes the text, then the ChangeBroadcaster base class will be used to send change messages to any listeners that have registered.

If the user changes the text, the textWasEdited() method will be called afterwards, and subclasses can override this if they need to do anything special.

Parameters

editOnSingleClick	if true, just clicking once on the label will start editing the text
editOnDoubleClick	if true, a double-click is needed to start editing
lossOfFocusDiscardsChanges	if true, clicking somewhere else while the text is being edited will discard any changes; if false, then this will commit the changes.

See also: showEditor, setEditorColours, TextEditor

discardCurrentEditorContents if true, the label's text will be reset to whatever it was before the editor was shown; if false, the current contents of the editor will be used to set the label's text before it is hidden.

◆ isBeingEdited()

bool Label::isBeingEdited ( ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the editor is currently focused and active.

◆ getCurrentTextEditor()

TextEditor* Label::getCurrentTextEditor ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the currently-visible text editor, or nullptr if none is open.

◆ createEditorComponent()

virtual TextEditor* Label::createEditorComponent ( )

void Label::valueChanged ( Value & )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Implements Value::Listener.

◆ callChangeListeners()

void Label::callChangeListeners ( )

protected
