Protege is it possible to show the name of a property in Ontograf

I'm taking screenshots for my ontology using OntoGraf in Protege

My problem is that Onto graf doesn't put any name or lable on the property, it just uses colors, and even the colors, start to repeat. for example

enter image description here

the color of properties between instane0-instance1 and instance0-instance3 is the same though they are connected using different properties.

Do you know how can I show a label (or whatever text) on the property ?

Kindly note I am asking about property not instances or class (for those, I already know how)

Responding to the updated question, from all the free tools I have used so far, the one works good both to visualise and edit, is the Cmap COE. I find it particularly useful it:

  1. Shows the list of triples in addition to the diagram
  2. The existing properties appear in a drop-down list when creating new ones
  3. There is clear notation for owl object property types, e.g. "=>=>" for transitive, ">>=" for functional and so on.
  4. Reads both OWL and RDF, exports in various serialisations: Turtle, N3, OWL/XML.
  5. Easy HTML export
  6. Multiple maps
  7. It can also be used collaboratively

The COE manual is quite well written.

In some cases OWLGrEd may do a better job than Cmap COE.

Having said that, if there is a big A-box, both of them wouldn't work well. In that case, a tool like Gephi with SWI plugin may be more appropriate (I see it featured in the answer that you pointed to. There was some reason I stopped using it, but I don't remember it as "not working").

Currently, apart from Cmap COE, I also use LodLive but only with SPARQL endpoint (although it is supposed to work with files as well) and TopBraid Composer ME (but visual graphs are available only in the paid version).

There are a few visualisation tools like Wandora, which I have't tested.
