= How to set the browser slot pattern to rdfs:label (or other property) using the API =

Sometimes you may want to display the classes, properties and/or individuals in your ontology using the value of rdfs:label or some other property, rather than using the name, which might be a meaningless identifier.
You can configure the Protege UI to use a different browser slot pattern (also referred to as browser slot) for the display of the entities. A users guide to do this for the UI mode is [http://protege.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?HidingIdentifiersWithLabelsInOWLPlugin here].

The same functionality can be achieved in an external application that uses the Protege API and its UI components.

The code from below shows how to configure an application to use the rdfs:label for displaying the classes and properties. You may choose to replace rdfs:label with another property.

<code>
<pre>
OWLBrowserSlotPattern rdfsLabelBrowserPattern = new OWLBrowserSlotPattern(owlModel.getRDFSLabelProperty());
//set rdfs:label as the browser pattern for owl:Class
owlModel.getOWLNamedClassClass().setDirectBrowserSlotPattern(rdfsLabelBrowserPattern);

//set rdfs:label as the browser pattern for rdf:Property
owlModel.getRDFPropertyClass().setDirectBrowserSlotPattern(rdfsLabelBrowserPattern);
</pre>
</code>

 If you want to use also a '''default language''' for rdfs:label, then you have to set the default language of the top ontology. This is done by setting the value of the property <code>protege:defaultLanguage</code> to a default language, like <code>fr</code> (for French), for example.
