Auto-center a Label

rfresh · Feb 24, 2012

I'm getting an object (LabeL) should first be initialized error on my Label with the following code to center a Label:

PHP:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
   Activity.LoadLayout("Main")
   Dim lbl_cb2 As Label
   lbl_cb2.Left = Activity.width - lbl_cb2.width / 2
End Sub

Also am I accessing the screen width correct using Activity.width?

Thanks...

It should be:

B4X:

 lbl_cb2.Left = (Activity.width - lbl_cb2.width) / 2

And this line should be in Sub Globals

B4X:

Dim lbl_cb2 As Label

Bear in mind you should also centre the label either in the designer or by using

B4X:

lbl_cb2.Gravity = Gravity.CENTER
