As we know the schematic editor has the ability to apply labels (of two styles) to nets that automatically update when the net name is changed.
I'm wondering if the pcb editor has an equivalent that will let me add silk text (on tPlace for example) that references the name of a net.
I know you can use codes like >NAME and >VALUE to reference the attributes of a component in a library symbol. It seems like you can add arbitrary attributes and reference them in your footprint (see here) but I don't see a way to access the name of the net.
I guess this can be done with a ULP but I'd prefer not to resort to that.

As far as I'm aware, no there is no way of achieving this automatically.
It would probably be possible to do with a ULP, or alternatively you could simply use the text tool and manually entering the name of the net.
