VertexLabeling

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