Then click on "Options..." and, in the window, look at the right side and check all the types of objects you like to see labelled.

Accept it and look at the performance of labelling in the M47 neighbourhood. > > Also, in "Preferences"--> "Identification", check "Show label" (Short or long, according to the degree of detail you want) > > I think it will be enough to solve your problem.
