PCB component name (hierarchical design)

Question

Hello,

I'm making a design with Eagle 7.2.0 and using the hierarchy feature. In each hierarchic bloc, the name of each component starts from 1 (U1, U2, ...). The problem is on the PCB design, because the hierarchic bloc name is added in each component.

For example, the bloc "SUPPLY" have the components C2 and R3. In the PCB view, the name of the components are the following:

Is it possible to show only the component identifier (C2 or R3) without showing the hierarchic bloc name (SUPPLY) on the PCB?

Thank you!

In the tutorial they said the names inside were unique to outside. This implies they need to use a qualified name outside, hence the Supply:R3 for instance. Clem
