[Squeakland] Label of a button Was: RE: newbie(ish) question (buttons)

Hi Squeakers.

I wonder if I've missed something.
How can I create a 'Label' of a button?
(I think a 'button' is something I've drawn and
 now tell it to act upon mouse-down, isn't it?)
If a Label means text embedded into a drawing,
how can I change that text?

Sincerely,

Uwe

You could ask the label of your button, if it says: "run" then run  
the sketch
_and_ change the label to "stop", and if it says "stop" vice versa.
