A Smart Label is a text label that is clickable. At runtime, if the user clicks the label text, a pop-up SmartInfo section appears.
Adding a Smart Label is similar to adding a text label, except that the Format field value is SmartLabel and accepts parameters.
You can use the Skin rule to modify the style definition for Smart Labels. See Skin form — Styles tab — Components — Smart Info. Click the Smart Label tab to style the text.
Identify or create a section that forms the contents of the pop-up window.
The section cannot contain input fields.

Click the down-arrow () at the right end of the Advanced control group (

Click the magnifying glass icon () to open the Cell Properties panel. Complete the panel to define the label appearance and behavior. If the panel is pinned (

), click Apply to apply your inputs.
