@class wxStaticText
A static text control displays one or more lines of read-only text.
+ wxStaticText supports the three classic text alignments, label ellipsization
+ and formatting markup.

+ especially useful with controls which also have the @c wxALIGN_RIGHT or

@style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_START}
- If the text width exceeds the control width, replace the beginning
- of the text with an ellipsis
+ If the labeltext width exceeds the control width, replace the beginning
+ of the label with an ellipsis; uses wxControl::Ellipsize.
@style{wxST_ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE}
- Same as above, but replace the text in the middle of the control
- with an ellipsis
+ If the label text width exceeds the control width, replace the middle
