Setting Default Label Position

Hi all
When I create a Boolean (or anything else), LV defaults to putting the label above the control and left justified. I like to change that so that the default location for a label is just to the right and top justified.
Anyone know how to do this?

I've heard this advice about the justification before, but many times it
doesn't seem necessary. If the label is totally above or below the
control, then the justification will determine which edge of the label
moves while the top or bottom is maintained. As long as autosizing is
turned on and the label projected horizontally intersects with the frame
of the control, the justification doesn't matter since the right or left
edge, whichever is next to the control will be maintained.
As for th
e orginal question, this is something you can change with
custom controls or typedefs, but the built-in control label position
cannot be controlled.

  • Retain Default Label Position

    If the Label Position is changed from default position there should be the option to retain the position, because finding the label in a very huge block diagram code is difficult as label is the only identification for the item

    Quick Drop already does this!  Open QD with CRTL+SPACE and then use CRTL+T.

  • Set Default Button Position

    In Question Slide buttons, is there a way to apply a position and size to 'all buttons of this type'?

    Thanks -- that worked.
    FYI, I did this within the template, too, but a new project based on
    that template reverted to the default settings for new question slides.
    I guess they're holding back that capability for the next version
    I appreciate your time.

  • Default Label Position

    Hello!
    When we create a new form using Region or Page wizards we get a form with default placement of label for field in the separate cell. Then we can change it to ABOVE manually...
    Is it possible to change this default placement of label to eliminate additional manual work later (for big forms it's little bit annoying)
    Thanks....

    No, this is not possible, it would be a nice feature.

  • Speedometer Label position

    Hi
    We are using Speedometer in our corporate dashboards and we are trying to show the Speedometer label below the image.
    Have tried to change the font by changing the stylesheet C:\ProgramFiles\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\PerformanceManagement\viz\controls\metricgauge\speedometer\speedo.css file but we are not able to change the position.Please let us know which elements to be added to change the position as the default label position is too wayward.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Kamal

    Hi,
    Following steps will solve your problem:
    1. set the label position as NO LABEL.
    2. Add a control type of type 'Plain Text' in which you can write the description of the variable and place it before the input field and adjust the size as desired.
    Hope this helps.

  • Agentry 7.0.3.504 - Label Position Issue

    I am creating a simple Agentry application with a list screen, detail screen, and transaction screen.  I would like the field labels to be on top for the detail and transaction screens.  I've set the "Label Position" property to 'Top' but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the screen.  You can see in the screenshot below that the property is set but the labels are still showing to the left.  I've confirmed that I see this same behavior in the Agentry test environment and the Agentry client for Windows.  Can you think of anything that I might be doing wrong?
    Tags edited by: Michael Appleby

    Christopher,
    You aren't doing anything wrong.  Label on Top setting only works for smart phone devices: iOS or Android.  To implement on Windows, you would need to create separate label fields directly above the actual fields.  Then leave the label on the actual fields blank.

  • ToggleButton label position

    Hi everyone,
    I'm looking for a way to align the Label of a ToggleButton to the left of it.
    My Toggle button is 100% wide, and the icon+label are centered in the button.
    I can't find a way to make icon+Label aligned to the left.
    I created a custom skin, but the Label keeps centered whatever I try...
    Any tips ?

    Hi,
    According to your description, you want to set default value for TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    I have a test in my environment. It could be achieved by setting the Text Property of TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    Here is the code snippet:
    TaxonomySession session = new TaxonomySession(SPContext.Current.Site);
    SPSite site = SPContext.Current.Web.Site;
    TermStore termStore = session.TermStores["Managed Metadata Service"];
    Group group = termStore.Groups["GroupA"];
    TermSet termSet = group.TermSets["A"];
    Term term = termSet.Terms["A1"];
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SspId.Add(termStore.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SSPList = termStore.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetId.Add(termSet.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetList = termSet.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.AllowFillIn = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsAddTerms = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsMulti = false;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.Text = string.Format("{0}|{1}", term.Name, term.Id.ToString());
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:

  • Y Axis label color inherits Pen color and not the default Label color.

    Hi,
    How do I enforce my Y Axis Label to taken the default color specified in the iChart Y-Axis Label Color property instead of picking it from the Pen color selected from the legend? I have a Y-Axis Label called "Total Stock", I can very well change the Label text using method
    document.TestChart.getChartObject().setYAxisLabel("Label from code");
    But when I use a similar
    document.TestChart.getChartObject().setYAxisLabelColor(Color);
    property, I dont see the color change on the screen. But when I get the color using a getYAxisLabelColor() method , the specified input Color is set. My Label in the Y-Axis, always inherits the Pen color of the selected Legend Item, by default the first Item color on Page Load.
    Settings done in the iChart:
    Use Selected Pen for label : Unchecked
    Y Axis Label Color: #000000
    Y Axis Label : Total Stock
    Show Y Axis Label: Checked.
    I appreciate your help,
    Ajitha

    Jeremy,
    I tried the method you mentioned...
    document.TestChart.getChartObject().setYAxisLabelColor(document.TestChart.createColor("#000000"));
    But I still dont see a change in the Label color.
    Another finding is, when I try to alert the Label color on load of the page or during the creation of the applet, I see the label color on the alert is not the pen1color but the default Label color that is set in the display template. I assume that the legend's default selection, overwrites the Label color with the first pen color, but I could not get it with the getYAxisLabelColor() method, even though I see it on the screen.
    Thanks!

  • Setting default property value in custom componenty

    I'm a Flash newbie trying to build a custom component using
    Flash MX 2004. basically it's an enhanced version of the standard
    label component. Everything seems to work fine except when trying
    to set default text or assigning a text value in the "properties"
    window (the field displays in the properties window, but any value
    typed into it does not appear during movie playback). Currently,
    the text can be seen only in authoring mode, not when the movie
    plays. The only way for the text to displayed during playback is to
    set it up through code. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? .as
    file content follows.
    class CustomComponents.FormFields.lblFieldLabel extends
    MovieClip {
    private var objFieldLabel:MovieClip;
    private var strText:String = "";
    function lblFieldLabel() {
    init();
    public function init():Void {
    public function get displaytext():String {
    return strText;
    [Inspectable(defaultValue="display text", type="String")]
    public function set displaytext(val:String):Void {
    strText = val;
    objFieldLabel.text = strText + ":";

  • Reset Quiz Default Labels?

    I'm building a simple (no lms, no tracking) quiz using
    multiple question forms. From the Preferences | Quiz | Default
    Labels form, I am trying to change the language in the labels, but
    my changes don't "stick." If I appologize deeply for getting the
    labels wrong the first time, can I please learn how to change them?
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    Hi there PJ
    The default labels are something that is used when you
    initially create the question. After you have created the question,
    you need to edit the area of interest individually. So you will
    need to look at each question you have already created,
    double-click the area of interest and change it there.
    Unfortunately changing the Default Labels has no effect on
    questions that have already been created.
    For future questions and quizzes, it's best to set the
    Default Labels before you even begin creating questions, as it
    saves you time over the long haul. But then, I'm guessing you have
    already realized that.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Can I Set Submix Label Color

    I would like to be able to set the label color as can be done with tracks, and clips.  At the moment, all the submix tracks are the default green.
    Is there a way to set the label color? 
    In the manual, there is only a mention that the submix tracks have a color label, but no mention on how to change it, and cntl-click does not review a pop-up menu, and using the "Multitrack > Track Color" menu, has no effect.
    To me, is seems if a track has a color label, I should be able to change it...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA

    its still not working.
    i have the following:
    panelColorCode.setForeground(Color.black);
    panelColorCode.setLayout(new Gridlayout(0, 2));
    panelColorCode.setBackground(Color.white);
    ....add(new Label("Colour code"));
    ....add(new Label.. these are both white backgrounds
    ....add(new Label... ditto
    panelColorCode.setBackground(Color.gray);
    ....add(new Label....
    this last line sets the whole panel to gray, but i just want the last label to be greyed out. is this possible, am i being dim?

    how set default value oneSelectChoice?

    Ok, say your ResidentIDCardType LOV has the following values, AB, CD, EF, GH. And you need to show EF by default when you render the component, then, you will set the defaultValue on the attribute to EF (which is one of the valid values in the LOV).

  • Spacing, alignment and labels position ...

    How can I adjust the spacing between items? When exporting as a PDF there's a ton of wasted space on printed forms, making it hard to fit much on a single page.
    Why do I have to adjust the "labels position" for the whole document? How can I just adjust it for the item selected?
    If I set "labels left" and try to adjust the width of the "edit label" field, it adusts all the "edit label" fields in the whole document. How can I adjust one without affecting the others?

    Yes, for fields that are the first in a row and that have label position set to Left or Right, they do share a "global" caption reserve (label width).  This FAQ goes into a little more detail:
