Labels Overview

The Label package contains the Label directive and the FloatingLabel component.

Basic Usage

The following example demonstrates the Label directive in action.

Installation

Either use the quick setup (Angular CLI) or manually add the package.

Quick Setup with Angular CLI

Angular CLI supports the addition of packages through the ng add command which executes in one step the set of otherwise individually needed commands.

Copy Code    ng add @progress/kendo-angular-label

Manual Setup

1. Download and install the package.

   Copy Code   npm install --save @progress/kendo-angular-label @progress/kendo-angular-common @progress/kendo-licensing

2. Once installed, import the LabelModule in your application root or feature module.

   Copy Codeimport { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
   import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
   import { LabelModule } from '@progress/kendo-angular-label';
   import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
   
   @NgModule({
       bootstrap:    [AppComponent],
       declarations: [AppComponent],
       imports:      [BrowserModule, LabelModule]
   })
   export class AppModule {
   }

3. You are required to install one of the Kendo UI themes for Angular to style your component. For more information on how to add the styles, refer to the section on styling.
