  Preview only. This is on the [preview channel](/rayfield-gen2/preview) and is not in the stable release. It can change or be dropped before it lands there.
</Note>

Text is copy on a page. It carries a title, a body, or both, and the card closes up around whichever half is there. The title renders at 16, the body at 14 and a shade lighter. Text has no value and does not save.

```lua theme={null}
tab:CreateText({
    name = "Read this first",
    text = "Either half can be left out, and the card closes up around what is left.",
})
```

## Properties

<ResponseField name="name" type="string">
  The title. Optional.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="text" type="string">
  The body. Optional.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="icon" type="string | number">
  An icon shown to the left of the title. Optional.
</ResponseField>

## Handle

<ResponseField name=".name" type="string">
  The current title.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name=".text" type="string">
  The current body.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="Set(text)">
  Set the body. Pass `""` to clear it.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="SetTitle(title)">
  Set the title. Pass `""` to clear it.
</ResponseField>

```lua theme={null}
local status = tab:CreateText({ name = "Status", text = "Waiting." })

status:Set("Connected.")
status:SetTitle("")  -- body on its own
```

<Note>
  Text is full width. Create it on a tab or inside a column group - a row warns and returns `nil`.
