    Hi Luqa,

    You need to place the net alias again by going to Place>Net alias option or press the "N" keyboard shortcut key to place the same net alias again..

    Hello,

    but i have to enter a name with net alias?

    i want only the label back, and not a "new" net alias.

    With place -> net alias -> the okay button is grayed out. in eagle was an icon place label. if i have to enter a name, it might be happen that the wire get an third net alias, if i do an mistake with the name.

    thanks

    Once the net alias is deleted, the tool assigns the system generated net alias internally. You can also check the net name in property editor.

    Hence in order to have the same net alias again, you need to place a new net alias with same name again as the previous one is deleted.

    Its grayed out because currently net alias is not mentioned, once you type the net alias, ok button will get enabled as shown below:

    Hi  Akshay khosla,

    omg now i understood the delete net alias function.  in eagle the net name was not dependent on the label, in orcad the net name is also deleted with the symbol, net alias.

    Thanks!
