Label.SetText(string newtext)Changes the text displayed in the specified label to NEWTEXT. This command allows you to change the text during the game, for example to create a Lucasarts-style status line.

lblStatus.Font = 2;
}
will change label 'lblStatus' to use font 2 if a game translation is in use.See Also: IsTranslationAvailable, Label.SetText, TextBox.Font
int Label.TextColor;Gets/sets the text colour used to display the label's text.
Example:
lblStatus.TextColor = 14;will change label 'lblStatus' to have yellow text.
