  15     @class wxStaticText
  16
  17     A static text control displays one or more lines of read-only text.
  18     wxStaticText supports the three classic text alignments, label
  19     ellipsization i.e. replacing parts of the text with the ellipsis ("...") if
  20     the label doesn't fit into the provided space and also formatting markup
  21     with wxControl::SetLabelMarkup().
  22
  23     @beginStyleTable
  24     @style{wxALIGN_LEFT}
  25            Align the text to the left.
  26     @style{wxALIGN_RIGHT}
  27            Align the text to the right.
  28     @style{wxALIGN_CENTRE_HORIZONTAL}
  29            Center the text (horizontally).
  30     @style{wxST_NO_AUTORESIZE}
  31            By default, the control will adjust its size to exactly fit to the
  32            size of the text when SetLabel() is called. If this style flag is
  33            given, the control will not change its size (this style is
  34            especially useful with controls which also have the @c wxALIGN_RIGHT or
  35            the @c wxALIGN_CENTRE_HORIZONTAL style because otherwise they won't make sense any
  36            longer after a call to SetLabel()).
  37     @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_START}
  38            If the labeltext width exceeds the control width, replace the beginning
  39            of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
  40     @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE}
  41            If the label text width exceeds the control width, replace the middle
  42            of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
  43     @style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_END}
  44            If the label text width exceeds the control width, replace the end
  45            of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
