Basalt/docs/objects/Label.md

With the Label object you are able to add some text.

By default label's width is auto sizing based on the length of the text. If you change the size with setSize it will automatically stop autosizing the width.

Here are all possible functions available for labels.
Remember Label inherits from Object

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("myFirstFrame"):show()
local aInput = mainFrame:addLabel("myFirstLabel"):setText("Hello lovely basalt community!"):show()

returns: self

setFontSize

sets the font size of that text.

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("myFirstFrame"):show()
local aInput = mainFrame:addLabel("myFirstLabel"):setText("Hello"):setFontSize(2):show()

arguments: number size (1 = default, 2 = big, 3 = bigger, 4 = huge)
returns: self

getFontSize

local aInput = mainFrame:addLabel("myFirstLabel"):setText("Hello"):setFontSize(2):show()
