Capture - Making new part editing pin names while placing new pin

Looks like Cadence has changed the Capture library symbol editor so that you can no longer right click to edit a pin name while placing consecutive new pins?

Example, I place pin 1 named "B1" . Next is pin 2 which comes up automatically but I don't want the pin name to be "B2" I want it to be "FGZ". Used to be I could right click, change the pin name and continue placing pins.

Now when I right click it gives me the option to end mode - no way to edit the name. So I need to place the pin and then select it to edit the name? Can't edit it on the fly anymore.....?

Am I missing something?

No answers? Kind of annoying that I need to end each pin and start a new one just to change the pin name. Used to be a right click would give you the option to change the pin name when placing pins.
