GUICtrlCreateLabel ( "text", left, top [, width [, height [, style [, exStyle]]]] )

Parameters

text	The text of the control.

top	The top of the control. If -1 is used then top will be computed according to GUICoordMode.
width	[optional] The width of the control (default is the previously used width).
height	[optional] The height of the control (default is the previously used height).

Return Value

Success:	Returns the identifier (controlID) of the new control.
Failure:	Returns 0.

Remarks

To set or change information in the control see GUICtrlSet....

To combine styles with the default style use BitOr($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_LABEL, newstyle,...).

To use the values specified above you must #include <StaticConstants.au3> in your script.

Default resizing is $GUI_DOCKAUTO size and position will occur.

The extended style $GUI_WS_EX_PARENTDRAG can be used to allow the dragging of the parent window for windows that don't have a titlebar (no $WS_CAPTION style in GUICreate).

To set the background to transparent, use GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT).

Example

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
