VertexLabeling

VertexLabeling
is an option for GraphPlot and related functions which specifies whether labeling should be included by default for vertices in graphs.

MORE INFORMATION

VertexLabeling->True shows each vertex with its name given in a box.

VertexLabeling->False displays each vertex as a point.

VertexLabeling->Tooltip displays each vertex as a point, but gives its name in a tooltip.

VertexLabeling->Automatic displays each vertex as a point, giving its name in a tooltip if the number of vertices is not too large.

VertexLabeling->All displays the name of each vertex both explicitly and in a tooltip.

Any explicit setting for VertexRenderingFunction overrides the setting for VertexLabeling.
