It seems that normal components don't display id label by default.

While mcu and custom components show it by default.

Should they have the same default dehavior?

BTW:

In R1881, in settings for file, should "Save when closed" / “Load compiler" / "Load breakpoints" be turned on by default?

Personally I only want labels when I'm not sure what component it is.
For example by default I don't want labels for resistors, capacitors, etc.

This could be configured, but maybe for next version.

Yes, I think so.
But I don't want to activate it by default until we know everything is working correctly.

It seems that all custom components and mcus display its name in the middle. So maybe the id label is not needed in most cases.

Yes, but the text is tiny.
In most cases I like to have the label for ICs, because they look all the same.

This is more a personal preference, but the idea is to make this configurable:

In the properties dialog will be 2 new buttons:
- Save as default: the current values will be the default values now on.
- Restore defaults: restore the original defaults.

This way any user can configure the default values for any component, not only show/hide label, but all the values of all the properties.

That will be very nice.
