[`StepLabelPropsType`](/jsdoc/pixi-vn/index/type-aliases/StepLabelPropsType)\<`T`>

The properties to pass to the label. It will be passed to the [StepLabelType](/jsdoc/pixi-vn/index/type-aliases/StepLabelType) of the label when it is executed.

Returns [#returns]

`Promise`\<[`StepLabelResultType`](/jsdoc/pixi-vn/index/type-aliases/StepLabelResultType)>

The result of the label execution. It can be a [StepLabelResultType](/jsdoc/pixi-vn/index/type-aliases/StepLabelResultType) or a Promise that resolves to a [StepLabelResultType](/jsdoc/pixi-vn/index/type-aliases/StepLabelResultType).
