    • setLabelVisibile

      public void setLabelVisibile​(boolean visible)
      Show/Hide the internal label maintained by this Configurer. It is up to individual Configurers to track and hide the label (if they can). This method is currently only utilized by the Preference configs PrefsEditor.addOption(String, Configurer) to extract an existing label in a configurer, display correctly aligned and suppress the original label. This keeps compatibility with custom module code setting up preferences. This method only needs to be implemented in Configurers that are added as preferences.
      Parameters:
      visible - Hide label if true
