PyGTK - Label Class
A Label widget is useful to display non-editable text. Label is used by many other widgets internally. For example, Button has a label to show text on the face. Similarly, MenuItem objects have a label. A label is a windowless object, so it cannot receive events directly.
Label class has a simple constructor −
gtk.Label(str = None)
The following useful methods can be used with Label object −
Sr.No. | Methods and Description |

set_text()

|
2 |
get_text()

|
3 |
set_use_underline()
If true, an underscore in the text indicates the next character should be used for the mnemonic accelerator key.
