10 @class wxStaticText
7c913512 11
23324ae1 12 A static text control displays one or more lines of read-only text.
3da9cffc
VZ
13 wxStaticText supports the three classic text alignments, label
14 ellipsization i.e. replacing parts of the text with the ellipsis ("...") if
15 the label doesn't fit into the provided space and also formatting markup
16 with wxControl::SetLabelMarkup().

23324ae1 18 @beginStyleTable
8c6791e4 19 @style{wxALIGN_LEFT}
5c87527c 20 Align the text to the left.
8c6791e4 21 @style{wxALIGN_RIGHT}
5c87527c 22 Align the text to the right.
8c6791e4 23 @style{wxALIGN_CENTRE}
5c87527c 24 Center the text (horizontally).
8c6791e4 25 @style{wxST_NO_AUTORESIZE}
23324ae1 26 By default, the control will adjust its size to exactly fit to the
32ee98eb 27 size of the text when SetLabel() is called. If this style flag is
23324ae1 28 given, the control will not change its size (this style is
32ee98eb 29 especially useful with controls which also have the @c wxALIGN_RIGHT or
3da9cffc 30 the @c wxALIGN_CENTRE style because otherwise they won't make sense any
32ee98eb 31 longer after a call to SetLabel()).
8c6791e4 32 @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_START}
4520d583 33 If the labeltext width exceeds the control width, replace the beginning
5c87527c 34 of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
8c6791e4 35 @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE}
4520d583 36 If the label text width exceeds the control width, replace the middle
5c87527c 37 of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
8c6791e4 38 @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_END}
4520d583 39 If the label text width exceeds the control width, replace the end
5c87527c 40 of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
