Detailed Description

The labels are placed in a column and can be accessed through title and subtitle properties. The default spacing between the labels is 0.5 grid units.

The container only shows the labels which has its text property set to a valid string. The labels not having any text set are not occupying the space.

import Ubuntu.Components 1.3
ListItem {
RowLayout {
Captions {
title.text: "Caption"
subtitle.text: "Subtitle text"
// attached properties of an Item type property
// can be changed only with assignment
Component.onCompleted: subtitle.Layout.alignment = Qt.AlignRight
}
Captions {
captionStyle: Ubuntu.SummaryCaptionStyle
title.text: "Text"
subtitle.text: "Text"
}
}
}

Additional items can also be added to the layout after the two labels.
