DESCRIPTION

       The  canvasLabel  class brings some Tk label widget functionality to the canvas text item,
       such as a background and a border.

       The canvasLabel is built with a bullet rectangle on the left side of the text. The  relief
       changes according to the select state, with a traditionally sunken relief when selected.

       The  label has a specific tag, which can be used to retrieve the coordinates of the object
       or move it, thanks to the canvas facilities.

       stooop::new canvasLabel canvas ?options?
              Creates a canvasLabel object in the specified Tk  canvas.  The  canvasLabel  object
              identifier is returned (referred to as canvasLabelObject in this document).

       switched::configure canvasLabelObject ?options?
              Configures  a  canvasLabel  object  or  returns  all the options with their current
              values if no options are passed as parameters.

       switched::cget canvasLabelObject option
              Returns an option value for the specified canvasLabel object.

       stooop::delete canvasLabelObject
              Deletes the specified canvasLabel object.

OPTIONS

       -anchor value
              Specifies the anchor position of the  rectangle  and  the  text,  relative  to  the
              positioning point. The behavior is similar to the -anchor option of the canvas text
              item, except that the rectangle is taken into account. The default is center.

       -background color
              Specifies the background color of the bullet rectangle, as in the -fill  option  of
              the canvas rectangle item. The default is transparent (empty string).

       -bordercolor color
              Specifies  the  border  color  of  the  rectangle, as in the -outline option of the
              canvas rectangle item. The default is black.

       -borderwidth value
              Specifies the border width of the rectangle, as in the -width option of the  canvas
              rectangle item. By default, the width is 1 pixel, which is the minimum width.

       -bulletwidth value
              Specifies  the  width  of the rectangle placed to the left of the text. Defaults to
              10.

       -font value

       -foreground color
              Specifies  the  color  of the text, as in the -fill option of the canvas text item.

              item. The default is left.

       -minimumwidth value
              The  total  label width will not go below the specified value, but may be larger if
              the label text requires it.

       -padding value
              Specifies how much space to leave between the text and the closest rectangle  edge.
              Units are identical to those specified in the canvas COORDINATES manual section.

       -scale list
              List  of  2  floating  point  numbers used to set the scaling factor in the x and y
              axis. Scaling is applied immediately and defaults to 1.

              Sets the label state.

       -selectrelief value
              Either flat, raised or sunken. Specifies the 3D effect desired for  the  text  area
              when the label is selected.

       -stipple bitmap
              Specifies  the  stipple pattern filling the rectangle, as in the -stipple option of
              the canvas rectangle item. There is no bitmap by default.

       -text text
              Specifies the string to be displayed in the text area, as in the  -text  option  of
              the canvas text item. The default is an empty string.
