| Name                                                                             | Value                               | Explanation                                                                                                                                   |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Size mode                                                                        | **One line**, **Multi** **line**    | If set to One line and the value exceeds the width of the control, it gets cut off.                                                           |
| If set to Multi line the value wraps in the control starting new lines if needed |                                     |                                                                                                                                               |
| Date format                                                                      | Selection of given Date formats     | If the input is a date, the selected date format will be displayed                                                                            |
| Format display text                                                              | DisplayText standin for Date format | Allows a DisplayText to force a Date format, useful when different languages adhere to different formats, such as the USA and The Netherlands |
| Numeric format                                                                   | Text                                | If the input is a number, this will be the way it will be displayed, where {2} would mean the input is set to 2 decimals                      |

***

### Tips & Best Practices

* When using a Date format, the input **MUST** given in a “yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss” format, any other format will not work

***

### Examples

In the following image there are 4 Labels set to differing values and options.

The first Label uses a Date format set to “dd MMM yyyy HH:mm” where the input is “2000-10-13 13:30:20”.

The second and third Label show the Size modes, both have the same width and height. The Multi line Control shows the whole value, whilst the Single line gets cut off by the width of the Label.

The fourth Label displays the Numeric format, in this case “${2}”, meaning the input value of 23 gets prepended by a $ sign and gets 2 decimal values.
