Hi, I'd really like to know how to prevent ChemDraw from automatically numbering the carbon atoms in molecules brought in using the Name to Structure function. It's particularly annoying because when I delete the numbers and then move or edit the molecule in any way, the numbers reappear!

@Agent K7 —

File > Preferences > Building/Display > untick: Display IUPAC Atom Numbers on S2N/N2S

To make sure the change sticks, open your default style sheet and re-save it with this change in Prefs. Close CD and then reopen it to make sure the changed setting is retained in the default style sheet.
