# OBJ_RECTANGLE_LABEL

Rectangle Label object.

![Note](pics/objrectanglelabel.png)

Note

Anchor point coordinates are set in pixels. You can select rectangle label's anchoring corner from [ENUM_BASE_CORNER](/en/docs/constants/objectconstants/enum_basecorner) enumeration. Rectangle label's border type can be selected from [ENUM_BORDER_TYPE](/en/docs/constants/objectconstants/enum_object_property#enum_border_type) enumeration.

The object is used to create and design the custom graphical interface.

Example

The following script creates and moves Rectangle Label object on the chart. Special functions have been developed to create and change graphical object's properties. You can use these functions "as is" in your own applications.
