TCustomLabeledEdit.DoPositionLabel procedure

Member of TCustomLabeledEditprotectedIn unit ExtCtrls

DoPositionLabel - perform the code for positioning the label.

Declaration

pascal
procedure DoPositionLabel; virtual

Description

DoPositionLabel is a procedure used to place the EditLabel relative to the companion control. No actions are performed in the method when EditLabel is unassigned (contains Nil).

DoPositionLabel ensures that DisableAlign is called in the Parent control (when assigned). EnableAlign is called for the Parent control prior to exiting from the method.

DoPositionLabel updates EditLabel to use the values assigned to the Parent and Visibility properties. The values in LabelPosition and LabelSpacing are used to set the anchor position for the EditLabel and the spacing between EditLabel and the edit box on the control.

Modified in LCL version 4.0 to use the Layout property in the TBoundLabel instance to determine vertical alignment for the label caption.
