View Source wxControl (wx v2.4.3)
This is the base class for a control or "widget".
A control is generally a small window which processes user input and/or displays one or more item of data.
This class is derived, and can use functions, from:

Summary
Types
-type wxControl() :: wx:wx_object().
Functions
-spec getLabel(This) -> unicode:charlist() when This :: wxControl().
Returns the control's label, as it was passed to setLabel/2.
Note that the returned string may contains mnemonics ("&" characters) if they were passed
to the setLabel/2 function; use GetLabelText() (not implemented in wx) if they are undesired.
Also note that the returned string is always the string which was passed to setLabel/2 but may be
different from the string passed to SetLabelText() (not implemented in wx) (since this
last one escapes mnemonic characters).
-spec setLabel(This, Label) -> ok when This :: wxControl(), Label :: unicode:chardata().
Sets the control's label.
All "&" characters in the label are special and indicate that the following character
is a mnemonic for this control and can be used to activate it from the keyboard
(typically by using Alt key in combination with it). To insert a literal ampersand
character, you need to double it, i.e. use "&&". If this behaviour is undesirable, use SetLabelText()
(not implemented in wx) instead.
