By default, all 5250 output text processed by Genie will appear as output field elements or widgets.
An output field element is a container for text supplied by your 5250 program or by a JavaScript expression.
Changing Labels
To adjust an existing label, simply double-click the label and change the text. This is useful in expanding abbreviations now that Genie allows for more screen space (e.g. changing qty to quantity or csz to city/state/zip).
Adding a new Heading
To add a new label, select Label in the Widgets Toolbox and drag it to the screen. Double-click the label to modify the text, font, color, alignment, and formatting.
