Hi,

Instead of creating a Label and a Text separately, is there one widget
that will create both for you? I look in the snippets, but can't find it.

Thanks

That would be a negative. You could build it yourself fairly simply by using an instance of both and StackLayout.

CLabel doesn't create two widgets but can display a label and text.

What do you mean by a label and text? Do you mean something like:

Name: __________________

where "Name:" is a label and "______" is a text field where the user can
enter text?

If so, there is not a single widget that creates this but the two widgets
Label and Text can be placed using GridLayout or FormLayout.

Yes, you are correct...Actually, Eclipse has the StringFieldEditor class
that builds the label and the text widget together side by side.

Thanks, BTW, for the *ALL* the great answers on this group!
