      See Also:
        `SCClassName`

    - #### setEscapeContents

          public DrawLabel setEscapeContents(boolean escapeContents)

      For `SVG-based` `DrawPane`s, whether to escape the specified `contents` of this label so that any markup syntax is rendered "as is," without being interpreted as SVG. This setting should not be customized when working with other `drawingType`s, as the `contents` are always escaped in such case.

      In SVG, a `DrawLabel`'s `contents` are rendered inside a `<text>` tag, so any SVG that's legal inside that tag can be set as the `contents` when `escapeContents` is false. See Mozilla SVG Developer Reference for more information about what exactly is supported.

      Note that the Framework will not be able to determine the width or height of a `DrawLabel` when this property is false, so the Framework will consider both dimensions to be zero, and centering will not work (e.g. for `DrawItem.titleLabel` autochildren). For top-level `DrawLabel`s, you may be able to get the DOM to center your content by setting `alignment` as "center" - the DOM will then interpret the `left`, `top` coordinates of the label as its centerpoint even though our Framework doesn't know the label's actual size.

      For a `titleLabel`, the `alignment` setting is ignored, as the Framework always positions it using "start" alignment, but SVG code such as the following demonstrates that centering is possible (via the "style" setting):

            <tspan text-decoration='underline' font-size='20px'
                   style='dominant-baseline:central; text-anchor:middle;'>MyLabel
            </tspan>

      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets the `escapeContents` property for this DrawLabel.
      Parameters:
        `escapeContents` - whether to escape `contents`. Default value is true
      Returns:
        `DrawLabel` instance, for chaining setter calls
      See Also:
        `setContents(java.lang.String)`, `setAlignment(com.smartgwt.client.types.LabelAlignment)`

    - #### getEscapeContents

          public boolean getEscapeContents()

      For `SVG-based` `DrawPane`s, whether to escape the specified `contents` of this label so that any markup syntax is rendered "as is," without being interpreted as SVG.

            </tspan>

    - #### setStyleName

          public void setStyleName(java.lang.String styleName)

The font properties `fontSize`, `fontWeight`, `fontStyle`, and `fontFamily`, unless set to null, take priority over any CSS settings.

      If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Sets this DrawLabel's `styleName`.

    - #### setDefaultProperties

          public static void setDefaultProperties(DrawLabel drawLabelProperties)

      Class level method to set the default properties of this class. If set, then all existing and subsequently created instances of this class will automatically have default properties corresponding to the properties set on the SmartGWT class instance passed to this function before its underlying SmartClient JS object was created. This is a powerful feature that eliminates the need for users to create a separate hierarchy of subclasses that only alter the default properties of this class. Can also be used for skinning / styling purposes.

      Note: This method is intended for setting default attributes only and will affect all instances of the underlying class (including those automatically generated in JavaScript). This method should not be used to apply standard EventHandlers or override methods for a class - use a custom subclass instead. Calling this method after instances have been created can result in undefined behavior, since it bypasses any setters and a class instance may have already examined a particular property and not be expecting any changes through this route.

      Parameters:
        `drawLabelProperties` - properties that should be used as new defaults when instances of this class are created
      See Also:
        `SGWTProperties`

    - #### setAlignment

      Deprecated. Use the method which takes a LabelAlignment.
      See `setAlignment(LabelAlignment)`.
      Parameters:
        `alignment` - Default value is "start"
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - Thrown upon attempt to change after component creation.
