What is "jlabel"
An object JLabel can display text, an image or both. You can specify where in the component display area the content will be aligned by setting the vertical and horizontal alignment. By default, the JLabels are centered vertically in the display area. When text-only, it has justified alignment by default; when image-only displays, it is centered horizontally, by default.
Unlike the JTextFields and many other controls, JLabels are transparent by default: parent content is visible in places not covered by text and icon and background color setting has no effect. JLabel may be rendered opaque by the method setOpaque(true).
