adding a label to view

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

I am trying to adda label to a view with no success what am i doing wrong? 

var vi = Ti.UI.createView({
        backgroundColor : '#fff',
     })
 
image.addEventListener('touchend',function(e){
 
var label = Titanium.UI.createLabel({
    color:'#999',
    text:'I am Window 1',
    font:{fontSize:20,fontFamily:'Helvetica Neue'},
    textAlign:'center',
    width:'auto'
});
 
        vi.add(label);
  win1.animate({
    duration : 500,
    view : vi, // this is the view to flip into...
    transition : Ti.UI.iPhone.AnimationStyle.FLIP_FROM_LEFT
});
 
});
When I add a button to the view (vi) it works fine just i'm having no joy with the label. All I am trying to achieve is to add some text to the view.

  • the full everything is as follows:

    Ti.UI.backgroundColor = 'white';
        var win1 = Ti.UI.createWindow();
        var image = Ti.UI.createImageView({
            image : data.rowData.identifier
        });
 
        var cButton = Titanium.UI.createButton({
        title : 'close',
        top : 10,
        width : 100,
        height : 40
    });
    cButton.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
        win1.close();
    });
     var vi = Ti.UI.createView({
        backgroundColor : '#fff',
     })
 
image.addEventListener('touchend',function(e){
 
  var text = Ti.UI.createLabel({
 
var label = Titanium.UI.createLabel({
    top : 10,  // set position?
    left : 10,  // set position?
    color:'#999',
    text:'I am Window 1',
    font:{fontSize:20,fontFamily:'Helvetica Neue'},
    textAlign:'center',
    width:'auto'
});
 
        vi.add(label);
 
        //vi.add(text);
  win1.animate({
    duration : 500,
    view : vi, // this is the view to flip into...
    transition : Ti.UI.iPhone.AnimationStyle.FLIP_FROM_LEFT
});
 
});
 
vi.addEventListener('touchend',function(e){
 
//TODO go back
 
})
 
        win1.add(image);
        win1.add(cButton);      
        win1.open();
    }); 
 
 
 
 
    //Ti.UI.currentWindow.add(tableview);
    win.add(tableview);
    win.open();
    I this helps you under stand my problem. I find it very strange i can add a button and it will work but not a label.
