Idents in Featureplot in Seurat outputs Idents name on top of the if Label is set to true. How do we see labels on top of scanpy UMAP plots.

Description
Hi,
Seurat allows us to set an Ident and when we do a feature plot we can label that feature plot with that ident. If I were to achieve something similar how would I go about it in scanpy? It is particularly useful when you are looking at the UMAP and want to figure out based on the expression over the UMAP as to which clusters are expressing a gene and deciding whether that particular cluster is a particular celltype.
Thanks

Research direction
Start by locating Scanpy's UMAP and feature-plot entry points and comparing their available label-related options with Seurat's behavior. Clarify the expected label placement and workflow for identifying clusters from gene expression, then confirm the result on a representative UMAP plot.
