Label option for boolean parameters has no effect

Describe the bug When setting a custom label attribute for a boolean parameter in a magicgui decorated function, the label of the object in the GUI doesn’t update accordingly.

To Reproduce

from magicgui import magicgui

@magicgui(check={'label': 'ABC'})
def test(check: bool):
    pass


if __name__ == '__main__':
    test.show(run=True)  # the label is 'check', not 'ABC'.

Expected behavior The shown label should be ‘ABC’.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux
• backend: Qt
• magicgui version: 0.2.6

text is the thing to the right of the checkbox (or, on a button, on the button itself). label is the thing to the left of a widget

Ahh, now I get it 😃 Thanks for the explanation.

Ohhh sorry, that will only work during instantiation. Yeah, technically “text” is just the correct thing to use here, not label. “Label” is reserved to mean when there is an additional widget that labels the primary widget. But ButtonWidgets have their own text IN the widget. I see that that is a bit confusing, but it’s two separate bits of text… will think about how to clarify
