The command 'set labelToggle' seems to be the only one to hide/show labels without affecting the label text. But as far as I know it is not possible to go into a defined status without affecting the label text. But this would be very helpful for a set of selected/specified atoms where some labels are hidden and some are displayed. I would like to suggest to add 'on/off' options to this command, e.g.:

set labelToggle ON [atom-expression]
set labelToggle OFF [atom-expression]

Since these options wouldn't fully fit to the 'toggle' an alternative solution could be:

display labels [atom-expression]
hide labels [atom-expression]

Kind regards,
Rolf

    Good news -- this just somehow did not get documented

    select _O
    label hide
    label display

    I also note that you can use

    select label == ""
    select label != ""
    select label = "N" (not case specific)
    select label like "A*" (case specific; allows wildcard)
