# Labeling
In JMap, labels are text values attached to map elements. They are used to display the attribute values of a layer's elements. For instance, labels can display street names on a linear road system or names of cities represented on the map by points.
Labels can either be placed manually or generated automatically by JMap when the data is displayed. The labeling tool is only used for manually created labels.
 **Add labels**
Allows you to manually create a label by clicking on a map element. The label is displayed according to the settings that have been configured for the element's layer.
 **Remove labels**
Press this button to delete all labels that have been added manually.
{% hint style="info" %}
Labels can be deleted individually by doing the following: \
1\. Enable the labeling tool. \
2\. Press and hold the **ALT** key and click on the label you wish to delete.
{% endhint %}
