how to turn off Display Name

#1 Post by plingane » 17 Dec 2021, 05:26

On Schematic for Mac, is there a trick to turn off a Display Name for a net? Easy enough to right click on the net and then select Display Name to turn it on, but I don't see a way to turn it off. Hoping it would toggle, I right clicked on the net and selected Display Name again, and all it did was add a second instance, as you can see on the attached.
Thanks for your help.

Simply select/highlight the displayed net name text and press the [Delete] key. This will not change the name of the net, it merely deletes the displayed text.

"Simply select/highlight the displayed net name text and press the [Delete] key."
Except that it's impossible to select/highlight some of the displayed net names in the latest version. Really frustrating...
