Possibly the first it comes to and this may be related to the sheet order issue mentioned before (that affects the print out order). Others may have done more experimentation. As a work around, you could make all but the desired netlabels annotations rather than a netlabel. You get the advantages of formatting your Sch as you wish but without the multiple netnames disadvantage. Of course you need to put the real netlabel on every connection. You would be defining one net name and using annotations to simply document additional information as you wish. I have a question though - how does multiple netnames and a scope of Nets and Ports Global make a sch more legible?
