--Example:

function clickroutine(sender)  --  onClick()
print "editbox2 clicked"
end

local forms = createForm()
local labels = createLabel(forms)

--Caption
labels.Caption="My first label"
local variable = labels.Caption
print(variable)

--Position
labels.setPosition(30,30)
x,y=labels.getPosition()
print("X coord of label is "..x.."; Y coord of label is "..y)

--Enabled?
local editbox1 = createEdit(forms)
local editbox2 = createEdit(forms)
editbox1.Enabled=false
if editbox1.Enabled then

   else
   print "editbox1 not enabled"
   editbox1.Caption="editbox1"
end

editbox2.Enabled=true
  if editbox2.Enabled then
  print "editbox2  enabled"
  editbox2.Caption="editbox2"
end

editbox1.setPosition(30,60)
editbox2.setPosition(30,90)

--Visibility
local editbox3 = createEdit(forms)
editbox3.Visible=true  -- If false editbox3 would not be displayed on the form.
if editbox3.Visible then
  editbox3.Caption="editbox3"   -- Sets the caption only when visible
  editbox3.setPosition(editbox3,30,120)
end

--Color
labels.Color=123456  -- color code in hex (range 000000 to FFFFFF)
local colorCode = labels.Color
print(colorCode)

--Onclick
editbox2.OnClick=clickroutine -- clickroutine must have exactly one argument
--alternatively: editbox2.OnClick="clickroutine"  --the function clickroutine will then be searched in _G when the click event triggers
