Zone Labels Not Showing On Plan

Newcomer

Fairly new to the software, and I'm having problem with zone labels. I put zones a few days ago and it worked well. Now that I'm working on it again, it won't show labels to newly added zones, just colored boxes. I also tried this solution, it works for the new zones but the labels for the old zones get doubled. 

 

Attached pic shows: (left) Zone I made days ago, and (right) newly made zone without any labels, except an arrow type label (I'm not familiar with terms sorry.)

Make sure you have this button clicked when creating the new zones:

It will automatically insert the zone label (you can select one from the favourites clicking the star button to the right)

There are 'Zone Stamps' that are controlled in the Model View Options.

Zone labels can be placed automatically as Jp1138 mentioned.

Or you can add a zone label with the label tool at any time.

 

There can only be one zone stamp per zone.

But you can have as many labels as you want, they can be in different layers and they can show different information.

They can even be placed in sections.
