If the label of the element is too big to fit in its given space, the text will be cropped on the side specified by the crop attribute. An ellipsis will be used in place of the cropped text. If the box direction is reversed, the cropping is reversed.
  • start: The text will be cropped on its left side.
  • end: The text will be cropped on its right side.
  • left: The text will be cropped on its left side.
  • right: The text will be cropped on its right side.
  • center: The text will be cropped in the middle, showing both the start and end of the text normally.
  • none: The text will be not be cropped using an ellipsis. However, the text will simply be cut off if it is too large. The side depends on the CSS text alignment.

A class used for headings. Typically, this will cause the text to appear bold.
indent
This class causes the text to be indented on its left side.
monospace
This class causes the text to be displayed in a monospace font.
plain
This class causes the element to be displayed with no border or margin.
small-margin
This class causes the text to be displayed with a smaller margin.
text-link
Labels with this class may be focused and the click handler run or the address in the href attribute opened on a mouse click or Enter key press. Labels will appear like a link (blue and underlined).

User notes

Remember that the label element has a "value" attribute, unlike value in HTML whereas buttons, checkboxes use label="foo" as the attribute

<label label="A Caption"/> <-- wrong -->
<label value="A Caption"/>

<label value="Click the button"/>
<button label="A Button"/>
<checkbox label="A Decision" value="1"/>
