sorry it has taken so long to respond. I missed this message due to travels
and have just found it.

Daniele, thank your for this observation. The Display-->label thing was a
simple coding error.

The label offset for POV-ray is more problematic. I don't think I can solve
that one. But what you can do is to switch to orthographic mode, which for
a Gaussian output will not likely be much different.

set perspectiveDepth FALSE

will render the labels in the correct place. The problem is that the labels
are floating in front of the model, and I recently switched POV-ray export
to export in orthographic mode and let POVray handle the perspective. This
was important for other reasons. But as a result, a label floating in space
in front of the atom will appear at a different location. An interesting
challenge to figure out the algorithm that still places it in the "proper"
place even when perspective is on. I will put that on the TODO list.
