Refreshing a label text

[MehrnooshD]

Hello,I am new to C#.
I have a UserControl. I could not Refresh a label text in the UserControl from another form.

The Codes are:

public partial class ImagePBX : UserControl
    {
        private Label label;
        private string _LabelText = "Label";
        public ImagePBX()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            this.label = new Label();
            this.label.Text = _LabelText;
            this.Controls.Add(label);
        }
        public string LabelText
        {
            get { return _LabelText; }
            set { _LabelText = value; ; }
        }
    }
 
 
public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            imagePBX1.LabelText = "string1";
            imagePBX1.Refresh();
         }
    }

In your LabelText property, your get/set operates on a local string. That string only assigns itself to the label's text property in the constructor, which happens when the object is created.

Basically, you need to update the label's text property at some point. A good place for this to happen is the LabelText property you've created. There's technically no need for the local string if you're not using it elsewhere, and also there's nothing stopping you from doing more than one thing in a set method. Another option (though personally, less desirable), could be to override the Refresh method and have that update the label's text property with the local string before calling the base refresh. I wouldn't go with that last one though.

I update the label in the set method.
but it dosn't work.

@MehrnooshD

public string LabelText
{ get { return _LabelText; }
set { _LabelText = value; ; }

}

You could have directly specified the Label.Text inside get and set accessors.. that's more logical and it works

@MehrnooshD
You don't update the label text, you're updating the local string. As ThatThatGuy said, you need to update the Label.Text property itself.

try this

         public string LabelText
         {
             get { return label.Text; }
             set { label.Text = value; }
         }
