LabelExtras
Comment:
- LabelExtras enables you to apply click listeners to sub-strings of a Label text.
A click on a sub-string raises an event and you can take whatever action you desire on such a click.
ClickableSpan
Events:
- Click (SelectionStart As Int, SelectionEnd As Int)
- Click2 (SelectionStart As Int, SelectionEnd As Int, Tag As Object)
Methods:
- Initialize (EventName As String, Color As Int, UnderlineText As Boolean)
Initialize the ClickableSpan.
Color defines the color of the clickable text, pass -1 if you do not wish to change that text color.
UnderlineText defines whether the clickable text shall be underlined.
The Click(SelectionStart As Int, SelectionEnd As Int) event will be raised when this ClickableSpan is clicked.
- Initialize2 (EventName As String, Color As Int, UnderlineText As Boolean, Tag As Object)
Initialize the ClickableSpan.
Color defines the color of the clickable text, pass -1 if you do not wish to change that text color.
