Net Labels not updating undelying attached net names
Description
In schematic editor when modifying a local net label(from X to Y for example) the underlying connection still seems to be the old/initial label name for that net(X in this case).
In previous versions of KiCAD and the expected behavior is that once I right-click and rename a label the underlying connection is switched to the new name.
I verify this connectivity using the net-highlight option in the schematic editor and the net does not shine after with the new name Y(but the label does).
Steps to reproduce
-
Create 2 distinct nets with different initial label names
-
Create a 3rd net
-
Assign the 3rd net one of the previous defined label names
-
Change in place the net label to the other one
-
Use the net-highlight OBS: Changes are made from right-click -> Properties(E)
It is expected that the underlying connection is renamed too to the new label name and visible in net-highlight.
