## Native Text

Native Text widget is using the native Text widget provided by the operating system, so it may have better but different looking and better performance. It can be used either as Text Input widget to input text or write a PV, as Text Update widget to display PV value or Label widget to display static text. So it inherited most of the properties from these widgets and added some special properties as listed below.

Tip: Native Text may not only have better looking, but also have significantly better performance in WebOPI, so it is strongly recommended to use native text widgets as much as possible for OPI to be ran in WebOPI.
