- List of all members, including inherited members

## Detailed Description

In addition to the normal Text type, Label follows the font and color scheme of the system. Use the `text` property to assign a text to the label. For other properties check Text.

A simple label looks like this:

    Label {
        text: "Hello world"
    }

You can use the properties of Text to change the appearance of the text as desired:

    Label {
        text: "Hello world"
        font.pixelSize: 22
        font.italic: true
        color: "steelblue"
    }
