Label, with its variations, is widely used in applications. But, unlike such labels, this Fancy Label will give a different appearance with certain attractive effects, such as Rainbow, Stripes, Gradient, Outline, Hollow and Emboss. Really great in enhancing your interface!

Fancy Label is a collection of 5 seperate labels, each with different nice decorative appearance. As descendant of TLabel, Fancy Label also supports transparent property, so it can be put in front of a background image to get even nicer look. 

(1)
DsRainbowLabel, label with fancy rainbow colors.
Colors can be set freely, maximum 32 different colors. Color sequence can be changed easily. Default color is 6 basic rainbow color.
Rainbow effects can be character base sequence, as well as fixed spaces sequence, horizontally or vertically.

(2)
DsStripesLabel, label with stripes effect, horizontal/vertical line patterns. Color can be chosen freely.

(3)
DsGradLabel, label with gradient effects, horizontally and vertically, using linear gradient equation. Gradient colors can be freely chosen.

(4)
DsOutlineLabel, label with effect of border line surrounding a font face. Free font color as well as outline color. 
This label also supports 'hollow' effect, a font with just a border surrounding its font face, without surface. 

(5)
DsEmbossLabel, label with emboss effects, raised and lowered. 


If you interested in these labels, please e-mail me. I just ask you to contribute in sharing development cost I already spent for (see Development Cost.txt).

See the demo to evaluate the available effects of these labels.
