# Class ScaleImageLabel

java.lang.Object
com.codename1.ui.Component
com.codename1.ui.Label
com.codename1.components.ScaleImageLabel

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Animation, Editable, StyleListener, IconHolder, TextHolder`

public class ScaleImageLabel extends Label

Label that simplifies the usage of scale to fill/fit. This is effectively equivalent to just setting the style image on a label but more convenient for some special circumstances. One major difference is that preferred size equals the image in this case.

The default UIID for this component is "`Label`".

    TableLayout tl = new TableLayout(2, 2);
    Form hi = new Form("ScaleImageButton/Label", tl);
    Style s = UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Button");
    Image icon = FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.MATERIAL_WARNING, s);
    ScaleImageLabel fillLabel = new ScaleImageLabel(icon);
    fillLabel.setBackgroundType(Style.BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SCALED_FILL);
    ScaleImageButton fillButton = new ScaleImageButton(icon);
    fillButton.setBackgroundType(Style.BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SCALED_FILL);
    hi.add(tl.createConstraint().widthPercentage(20), new ScaleImageButton(icon)).
            add(tl.createConstraint().widthPercentage(80), new ScaleImageLabel(icon)).
            add(fillLabel).
            add(fillButton);
    hi.show();
