How do I display net names on a schematic page?

Former Member

I have other schematic capture cad programs I have always given custom net names to all nets and shown most on the schematic.  This helps me check my work and allows for improved understanding of the routed PCB.  In addition, it allows me to give identical net names to nets that are not connected visually on the schematic if I so choose.

 

How do I do this in Eagle?  I have searched and not found an answer. 

 

I would hope to do something like right click on a wire, then see an attribute to check like "show net name".  But I do not see that. 

 

Thanks . .

    Use the LABEL command and click the nets to make the names visible. In

    addition you can CHANGE xref = on to get labels (flags) instead of text.
