<u>Drawing</u>
<p>
When in drawing edit mode, the NAME command is used to display or
edit the name of the selected element, signal, net, or bus.
<p>
The <i>old_name new_name</i> syntax can be used only inside a board
to rename an element.
<p>
<u>Library</u>
<p>
When in library edit mode, the NAME command is used to display or
edit the name of the selected pad, smd, pin or gate.
<p>
<u>Automatic Naming</u>
<p>
EAGLE generates names automatically: E$.. for elements, S$.. for signals,
P$.. for pads, pins and smds. In general, it is convenient to substitute
commonly used names (e.g. 1...14 for a 14-pin dual inline package)
in place of these automatically generated names.
<p>
<u>Schematic</u>
<p>
If nets or buses are to be renamed, the program has to distinguish
between three cases because they can consist of several segments placed
on different sheets. Thus a menu will ask the user:
<p>
This segment<br>
Every segment on this sheet<br>
All segments on all sheets
<p>
These questions appear in a popup menu if necessary
and can be answered either by selecting the appropriate item with
the mouse or by pressing the appropriate hot key (T, E, A).
