# Label

A Stadium label control renders as a standard \<span /> tag. Custom font styles are placed in a style attribute in the span tag (inline). Such custom font styles will always override your stylesheet. You can change the label text by assigning a new value to the label in a script.

### Properties

1. **Text**

   The text to be shown in the label.
2. **Visible**

### Assigning data to a Label

Example:

To display a Label containing a specific value retrieved by a SQL query:

1. Use an appropriate [Event](/features/events.md), e.g. *Load* (page) or *Click* (button) to which a [*SetValue* ](/actions/set-value.md)action can be added.
2. Add a [SetValue](/actions/set-value.md) action to assign the value from the query to the Label's *Text* property.
