Eagle board View, how to keep names on top?

Hello,

I had to rotate some parts in the PCB, now half my caps have the name on the bottom and the other half on top. How can a force the name to be on top regardless of orientation?

A global fix would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Select SMASH from the EDIT menu, and click on each part. This separates the label placement from the part placement. Then select MOVE, click on the cross-hair of the label and it can be moved to the position you want. Right-clicking will rotate the label.

Thank you very much.

There is a ULP on Eagle’s website to “smash all” to make moving labels a little easier.
