Making the switch from expressPCB - ground plaine

I'm working on making the change from expressPCB and there are some things I'm wondering how to do or if they're possible.

It's nice to be able to hide the ground plaine while working so it's easier to see traces, connectors, labels, etc. Is there an easy way to hide the pologon?

Also, is there an easy way to move around the part lables so it doesn't get so muddled with parts that are close together?

Thanks!

Found my answer here:

In the command window at the top, enter "ripup @" and that will make the pur dissapear. If you hit ratsnest again, it will appear.

Still figuring out how to move the part lables.

Figured it out again. Use "Smash" on the component and then you can select, move, delete labels on the component.
