When you say reveal, do you mean you want to set the label to a string with a # or * in it?

I'm not 100% sure this is what you need to know, but if you mean from within a skin it would be the <label> tag of the control so, for example:

Code:

<control>
      <description>what this is</description>
      <type>label</type>
      <id>110</id>
      <posX>535</posX>
      <posY>705</posY>
      <label>what you want it to be # *</label>
      <font>font12</font>
      <align>right</align>
      <textcolor>ffffffff</textcolor>
    </control>

The characters you mentioned (#*) should display fine. They do for me, at least. Is this what you meant?

It is a mystery.
Yesterday I had created a button with one '#' or '*' in label. And this '#' or '*' was not visible. And today with the scritp that goes. I am really been sorry and thank you for your assistance.
