DefaultLabelStyle

DefaultLabelStyle
is a low-level option for formatting and related constructs that specifies the default style to use in displaying their label-like elements.
  • DefaultLabelStyle->style specifies that the label-like elements should effectively be replaced by Style[label, style].
  • The default setting for DefaultLabelStyle is typically different for different constructs.
  • For Tooltip, the default setting is DefaultLabelStyle->"TooltipLabel", and in general for an object named obj it is typically "objLabel".
  • DefaultLabelStyle->{} introduces no default style specifications, thereby effectively allowing all outside style specifications in.
  • DefaultLabelStyle->style makes any specifications in style override corresponding outside style specifications.
