QLabel

QLabel is a QWidget object configured to display simple text and images.

Creating one looks like this:

        label = qtw.QLabel('Hello Widgets!', self)

Notice this time that the parent widget is specified as the second argument, while the first argument is the text of the label.

Some commonly used QLabel properties are shown here:

Property	Argument	Description
text	string	Text to display on the label.
margin	integer	Space (in pixels) around the text.
indent	integer	Space (in pixels) to indent the text.
wordWrap	Boolean	Whether to wrap long lines.
textFormat	Qt.TextFormat	Force plaintext or rich text, or auto-detect.
pixmap	QPixmap	An image to display instead of the text.

The label's text is stored in its text property ...
