Rendering text labels over vertices

I am plotting text labels next to vertices but some vertices cover the
text of other vertices. Is there a way to ensure that the text is
displayed on the foreground? I am using graph_draw.

Cheers,

Hi Giovanni,

The texts are currently drawn together with the vertices. You can avoid
obscuring text to some extent by specifying the vertex order via the
"vorder" parameter.

An option to force the drawing of texts above all vertices would be a
nice improvement. If you want, you can open a bug report for this, and
I'll around to it when I find some time.
