Label parameter

[pman777]

Hi, is there a way to set the "Label" parameter (in the "Visual" section) from within ninjascript?

Hello pman777,
Yes, you can override the ToString() method to do it.

Please refer to this sample code which further demonstrates it

this.Name = "WhateverYouWantItToBe";

in the Initialize() method.

Hello pman777,
Have you tried overriding the ToString() method as demonstrated in this sample code.

That is not what I understood by the statement: "... set the "Label" parameter ".If you want to shorten the string being printed, then you will have to override the ToString() method, as shown by Joydeep.
