So, right now Flux places the Designators as it should, however the Part Name/Manufacturer Part Number is not visible in the schematics and for important ICs and Stuff, you need to remove the designator and add the part number to it so that its visible on the canvas.
Also in the current version we need to click on each part to see the part number or the name, which is also a step within a step and not user friendly.
One should be able to tell the part number without going to look at the property for that part.
Someone may say that it would make the schematics Cluttered.. absolutely not I believe...
Also if not visible all the times, if we can have the "EYE Icon" to enable or disable it to show up on the canvas could be great.

Absolutely agree with this. I commonly work with large schematics with many ICs that have similar symbols and being able to see the part name at a glance improves speed and readability of the schematic. Having to click through the properties to determine what the part is slows me down.
