### Entry Formatting
Various strings can be formatted using a syntax that allows width & precision specifiers, text styling, etc. Depending on the context, various elements can be referenced by `{name}`. Additional text styles can be supplied as well. The syntax is largely modeled after Python's [string format mini language](https://docs.python.org/3/library/string.html#format-specification-mini-language).
#### MCI Formatting
For more advanced layouts, you may want to apply formatting to MCI codes. In this case, an alternative syntax is supported similar to standard [Entry Formatting](#entry-formatting). MCI codes can be surrounded by `{` and `}` in the `text` field of your `theme.hjson` for a Text Label (`%TL` aka [Text View](./views/text_view.md)). An example:
```
text: "|00|07{BN!stylel33t}" // render board name in "l33t" text
```
### Additional Text Styles
Some of the text styles mentioned above are also available in the mini format language:

## Predefined Label View
A predefined label view supports displaying a predefined MCI label on a screen.
## General Information
> :information_source: A predefined label view is defined with a percent (%) and the characters PL, followed by the view number and then the predefined MCI value in parenthesis. For example: `%PL1(VL)` to display the Version Label. *NOTE*: this is an alternate way of placing MCI codes, as the MCI can also be placed on the art page directly with the code. For example `%VL`. The difference between these is that the PL version can have additional formatting options applied to it.
> :information_source: See *Predefined Codes* in [MCI](../mci.md) for the list of available MCI codes.
> :information_source: See [MCI](../mci.md) for general information on how to use views and common configuration properties available for them.
### Properties
| Property | Description |
|-------------|--------------|
| `textStyle` | Sets the standard (non-focus) text style. See **Text Styles** in [MCI](../mci.md) |
| `justify` | Sets the justification of the MCI value text. Options: left (default), right, center |
| `fillChar` | Specifies a character to fill extra space in the view. Defaults to an empty space |
| `width` | Specifies the width that the value should be displayed in (default 3) |
| `textOverflow` | If the MCI is wider than width, set overflow characters. See **Text Overflow** below |
### Text Overflow
The `textOverflow` option is used to specify what happens when a predefined MCI string is too long to fit in the `width` defined.
> :information_source: If `textOverflow` is not specified at all, a predefined label view can become wider than the `width` if needed to display the MCI value.
> :information_source: Setting `textOverflow` to an empty string `textOverflow: ""` will cause the item to be truncated if necessary without any characters displayed
> :information_source: Otherwise, setting `textOverflow` to one or more characters will truncate the value if necessary and display those characters at the end. i.e. `textOverflow: ...`
