object

A SftMaskCaption object.

String

Defines the caption text.

Comments

The Text property defines the caption text.

The caption can include an accelerator key. By using the & character in the Text property, the following character becomes an accelerator key. If the user types Alt plus the defined accelerator key, the control receives the input focus. For example, if the Text property is set to "Today's &Date", the displayed caption will read "Today's Date", i.e., the D is underlined. If the user types Alt+d, the edit control receives the input focus. To display an & character use "&&".

The caption area position and size are defined using a combination of the Caption.SizePercent or Caption.Width, Caption.Position and AutoSize properties. For a detailed description of the various combinations, please see the chapter Built-In Caption.
