undeleting part names from the layout

Question

I've accidentally deleted a part name on the layout, like "R5", by right-click and then delete. I was deleting the values (like "150k") which I didn't want to show up on the layout and got a name by mistake. Is there a way to get the part name back on the layout? If I right click on the part itself in the layout and then go to "name" the correct name shows up in the dialog box there, but does not display on the layout anymore.

Thanks!

Can't you simply hide the xValues layer for that?

Yes: UnSMASH the part by selecting the SMASH tool and Shift-Clicking the

part in question. Alternatively, uncheck the "Smashed" CheckBox within

the INFO dialog.

Besides hit the UNDO key (F9 in my case)
