	Using the Label Option

Use this option to place comments, instructions, or other text messages directly in the workspace, much like a virtual "sticky note."

Labels provide the capability to:

Insert explanations of what a certain group of nodes does.

Direct comments at fellow team members.

Make written comments in the workspace for whatever need you might have.

Labels do not become part of the generated code.

To use a label:

On the Call Flow Editor palette, click Label.

Note:

The Label item might be "hidden" behind the Bookmark item. To bring it forward so you can select it, click the down arrow to the right of the Bookmark item.

Click in the workspace at the location where you want Dialog Designer to display the label.

Enter the desired text inside the label.

(Optional) Use the side handles to resize the label as desired.

Note:

When you first place a label in the workspace and type text into it, the label box expands the width to accommodate the text. You can drag the handles to adjust the height and the width of the label. After you manually adjust the height and width of the label, the label no longer expands automatically. Text that does not fit into the space, then, is hidden until you manually adjust the size of the label.
