def handle_new_text model, transfer
  default_label.text = transfer[:new_text]
end

#load ⇒ Object

@load@ is called when the UI is opened. You can think of it as a subsitute for ‘initialize’, which, in the parent code, is already used for high-lelve preperations and should not be replaced without a good understanding of how it works.
