	 * If the configured text value contains HTML code or script tags, those will be
	 * escaped.
	 *
	 * As of version 1.60, you can hyphenate the text with the use of the
	 * <code>wrappingType</code> property. For more information, see
	 * {@link topic:6322164936f047de941ec522b95d7b70 Text Controls Hyphenation}.
	 *
	 * <b>Note:</b> Line breaks will always be visualized except when the
	 * <code>wrapping</code> property is set to <code>false</code>. In addition, tabs and
	 * whitespace can be preserved by setting the <code>renderWhitespace</code> property
	 * to <code>true</code>.
