Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): Origin 7.5 SR6
Operating System: Windows XP SP2

Is it possible to create a text object with OriginC? It seems I can only use LT_excute("Label -n Text ttt");

Another question is how to set the Font for this text object? In the help, it says that the font can be set using option "-f fontname", but I couldn't get it by either using "Label -f Tahoma -n Text ttt" or "Label -n Text -f Tahoma Text "ttt"".

By the way, which font is used in the input window of Text Control Dialog? It's a monospaced font, and I would like use it for the text object.

Any comments are appreciated!

That's correct. There is no OriginC method for creating text labels.

Once the label is created it's easiest to use labelName.font.

GraphLayer gl = Project.ActiveLayer();
gl.LT_execute("label -n Text ttt");
gl.LT_execute("Text.font=font(Tahoma)");
