title: Point.setText()
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
The `Point.setText()` method sets text on a Point. Under the hood, this will
|
|
call `Point.attr()` as text is set via attributes. Refer to [Adding
|
|
text](/howtos/code/adding-text) for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Signature
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
Point point.setText(
|
|
string text,
|
|
string className
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Tip compact>This method is chainable as it returns the `Point` object</Tip>
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
<Example caption="Examples of Point.setText(), compare this to [Point.setText](/reference/api/point/settext)">
|
|
```js
|
|
({ Point, points, Path, paths, part }) => {
|
|
|
|
points.anchor = new Point(100, 25)
|
|
.setText('FreeSewing')
|
|
.setText('rocks')
|
|
|
|
// Avoid the text getting cropped
|
|
paths.hidden = new Path()
|
|
.move(points.anchor)
|
|
.line(points.anchor.shift(0, 80))
|
|
.addClass('hidden')
|
|
|
|
return part
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
</Example>
