pcb - Show Pad Nets Seemingly Not Working in Altium


For some reason, the PCB is not showing net names on the pads


I have all connections (rats nests) visible I have checked the "Show Pad Nets" and "Show Via Nets" under the View Configurations > View Options Panel


I have checked layer colors and everything is on


What other setting might there be which is preventing the net names from displaying within the pads/vias on the PCB layout?



I am running AD15 on Windows 8.1 and this is really bugging me!


This is an example screen shot of the PCB environment, you can see that despite the option for "show pad nets" being enabled, they are not showing. enter image description here


Thanks for the help


This question is not the same as another related question "Show Pads with their Name on PCB altium " which discussed adding silkscreen designators. It is about why the Altium feature "show pad nets" does not seem to be working to show the 'virtual' net names in the PCB tool within the pads

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
