'''Spacing and Alignment:'''
See page "Layout" (to be added)
 
'''Language:'''
Keep labels short - Be aware that translated English text can expand up to 30% in some languages.
 
Do not shorten your labels to the point of losing meaning, however.
A three-word label that provides clear information is better than a one-word label that is ambiguous or vague. Try to find the fewest possible words to satisfactorily convey the meaning of your label.
 
'''Capitalization:'''
See page [[Projects/Usability/HIG/Capitalization]]
 
'''Keyboard Accelerators:'''
Ensure that a label with a keyboard accelerator is associated with the control it labels.
