Label.setMarkup

Parses @str which is marked up with the [Pango text markup language]PangoMarkupFormat, setting the label’s text and attribute list based on the parse results.

If the @str is external data, you may need to escape it with g_markup_escape_text() or g_markup_printf_escaped():

|[<!-- language="C" --> GtkWidget *label = gtk_label_new (NULL); const char *str = "some text"; const char *format = "<span style=\"italic\">\%s</span>"; char *markup;

markup = g_markup_printf_escaped (format, str); gtk_label_set_markup (GTK_LABEL (label), markup); g_free (markup); ]|

This function will set the #GtkLabel:use-markup property to %TRUE as a side effect.

If you set the label contents using the #GtkLabel:label property you should also ensure that you set the #GtkLabel:use-markup property accordingly.
