NER Template Not Working as Expected

[eschaffn]

The NER template shows the label name inside the highlighted text region as shown here:

This is also how the interactive example works here. This makes it a lot easier to keep track of which color is which label, and makes annotating much quicker.

However, when creating an NER labeling project using the template my UI looks like this:

The highlighted text regions don't show the label names.

I tried copying the XML code from the web page but both the default template and the copied XML behave the same for me.

I'm using the following label studio version:

{
  "release": "1.14.0.post0",
  "label-studio-os-package": {
    "version": "1.14.0.post0",
    "short_version": "1.14",
    "latest_version_from_pypi": "1.14.0.post0",
    "latest_version_upload_time": "2024-11-13T08:08:53",
    "current_version_is_outdated": false
  },

  "label-studio-os-backend": {
    "message": "explicitly add setuptools to build",
    "commit": "1873abacbe2b13c6e81483c377052a8ddf400a17",
    "date": "2024/11/13 01:48:45",
    "branch": "",
    "version": "1.14.0.post0+0.g1873aba.dirty"
  },

  "label-studio-frontend": {
    "message": "explicitly add setuptools to build",
    "commit": "1873abacbe2b13c6e81483c377052a8ddf400a17",
    "date": "2024-11-13T06:48:45.000Z",
    "branch": "develop"
  },

  "dm2": {
    "message": "explicitly add setuptools to build",
    "commit": "1873abacbe2b13c6e81483c377052a8ddf400a17",
    "date": "2024-11-13T06:48:45.000Z",
    "branch": "develop"
  },

  "label-studio-converter": {
    "version": "1.0.7"
  }
}

Looking at the release notes, not being on 1.15.0 shouldn't be the issue however.

Hello,

You can add attribute in Text tag called showLabels and set it to true. This will show the labels inside the region (https://labelstud.io/tags/text). Please let us know if this works for you.

Thank you,
Abu

Thank you so much! Sorry for missing that in the docs, I didn't see the showLabels tag in any of the templates code.
