Remove names on individual components

Former Member

Hi,

 

Is it possible to hide names on the board for individual components ??.

 

I have a set of 'test points' which need to be named to wire up, but on my board I want the names NOT shown ??.

 

Thanks

 

Graham

  • Further question on similar subject,

     

    How can I move the name of a component on the board. I cannot find a way to highlight a component name and move without moving the whole component ??

     

    Thanks

    Use

       smash (+click on the component)

    to make that component's texts movable.

     

    Then either

      - move the text as desired or

      - delete the text if necessary.

     

    To get all the texts back, use

       smash (+shift-click on the component).

     

    The same works in the schematics.

    Or edit the component so that the pad is invisible.
