Size (float) The height of the displayed label, in the range 0.0 - 1.0. Xpos (float) The X position of the center of the label. -1 describes the left side of the window; 1 describes the right side of of the window. Ypos (float) The Y position of the label. -1 describes the bottom of the window; 1 describes the top of the window. </pre> </blockquote> <h3>Outputs</h3> <blockquote> <pre> LabelGeom - geom </pre> </blockquote> <h3>Example networks</h3> <blockquote> <pre> This network displays a label in a geometry window.
