LABEL

Guide Section: GUI of EASAPs | EASAP Tree: USER INTERFACE Branch


LABEL displays text and images on the input region of a TABBED PANE. It can used to display a variety of information, including:

  • Instructions or help
  • Input data not enter explicitly by the user
  • Results data

Tip: For displaying numerical data, it is often useful to use DORs in the Label: parameter that includes inline units and number formatting, for example:

Label:%Stress [MPa] 10.3f%
