What do you think of the following descriptions:

If set, text will ignore left mouse clicks and actions that work on
objects under the mouse.
@item ToggleOnlyNames
If set, only text will be sensitive for mouse clicks and actions that
work on objects under the mouse.

I think this is consistent with gschem; a symbol in your schematic
specifies the footprint it needs when it becomes an element on your
board.
No. A symbol in gschem is not necessarily elementary.
I meant consistent with gschem's use of the terms footprint and
element.

In pcb an element represents any part you might install on your

Would I say there are twenty 0603 footprints on a board?
Well, I would. I insert pattern from the footprint library
not from the element lib. If there were different 0603
land patterns on the board, I'd say: The layout contains
three kinds of 0603 footprints in the layout
