Making symbol text unselectable on an instance

swdesigner

Hello,

       I put text (not pin name) notes on my symbols to convey information. However, when viewing the schematic in which the symbol is instantiated, clicking on the instance is now more cumbersome because the text gets selected if the pointer is on the text.

 

Is there any way to make such text unselectable when the symbol is instantiated?

 

Thanks!
