wxString wxControl::GetLabel

(

)

const [virtual]

Note:

The returned string contains mnemonics ("&" characters) if it has any, use GetLabelText() if they are undesired.

Reimplemented in wxButton, and wxStaticText.

wxString wxControl::GetLabelText

(

)

const

Returns the control's label without mnemonics.

static wxString wxControl::GetLabelText

const wxString &

label

void wxControl::SetLabel

(

const wxString &

label

)

[virtual]

Sets the item's text.

Any "&" characters in the label are special and indicate that the following character is a mnemonic for this control and can be used to activate it from the keyboard (typically by using Alt key in combination with it). To insert a literal ampersand character, you need to double it, i.e. use "&&".

Reimplemented from wxWindow.
