Class JideLabel

java.lang.Object
java.awt.Component
java.awt.Container
javax.swing.JComponent
javax.swing.JLabel
com.jidesoft.swing.JideLabel
All Implemented Interfaces:
Alignable, AlignmentSupport, ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, SwingConstants
public class JideLabel extends JLabel implements Alignable, AlignmentSupport
Just like JideButton comparing to JButton, JideLabel is like JLabel except it is used on JToolBar or CommandBar. However it doesn't look any different from a regular JLabel unless you override "JideLabel.foreground", "JideLabel.background", or "JideLabel.font" etc UIDefaults.

JideLabel also can be used in a vertical layout. If you call setOrientation(int) and set it to SwingConstants.VERTICAL, the text and icon on the label will be laid out vertically. As CommandBar supports vertical layout, this is perfect for it. You can also control the rotating direction by calling setClockwise(boolean). By default, it rotates clockwise.
