Am looking up "labels" referenced in the video introducing documentation. I get a lot of hits for "labels," but no matter what I search, I can't seem to find the basic documentation for a simple label.
Anyone know where to find it?
NOTE: Unfortunately, I can't attach screenshots to help show Pasan's screen vs. mine.

Courses Plus Student 7,653 PointsChris Stromberg If you look at Xcode Version 10 the documentation is wildly differnt than what is reflected in these videos. Big Passan fan, but this video needs a real update. When you option+click you only get a Declaration and reference to where it’s declared. There are no more easy to see long descriptions that provide helpful contextual information.

Courses Plus Student 13,389 PointsIf your looking for documentation on label's (UILabel), go here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uilabel
Or
In XCode (version 9.0), select Window, Developer Documentation. Search for UILabel.
