label
Element ¶label => TEXT
Every heading
and container
holds a label
as its
first child. The label text is what appears in the outline pane of
the GUI’s viewer window. PSPP also puts it into the outline of PDF
output. The label text doesn’t appear in the output itself.
The text in label
describes what it labels, often by naming the
statistical procedure that was executed, e.g. “Frequencies” or
“T-Test”. Labels are often very generic, especially within a
container
, e.g. “Title” or “Warnings” or “Notes”.
Label text is localized according to the output language, e.g. in
Italian a frequency table procedure is labeled “Frequenze”.
The user can edit labels to be anything they want. The corpus contains a few examples of empty labels, ones that contain no text, probably as a result of user editing.
The root heading
in an SPV file has a label
, like every
heading
. It normally contains “Output” but its content is
disregarded anyway. The user cannot edit it.
