Hide colon in label

Former Member

Hi All,

When we add a label to a view, a colon ( is always displayed after the label text. Is there any way to hide this colon? It doesn't comply with our client's look and feel requirements! We still want to keep the accessibility benefit provided by the "label for" feature though, so using a textView instead is not ideal...

Any ideas?

Many thanks,

Russell.

Hi,

Change the "<i>design</i>" property of the Label UI element from "<i>standard</i>" to either "<i>light</i>" or "<i>emphasized</i>".

Excellent - thanks Satyajit! If you choose light or emphasized, the colon disappears! If standard, a colon is always present, regardless of what is in the text property.

Many thanks - max points awarded.

You can modify the label by entering any string in the Label field. Alternatively, you can right-click the control itself and choose Rename from the context menu

Hi Russel,

Try removing the colon from the label's 'text' property
