Removing labels from points in Google Earth

I'm looking to export point locations from FME as a .kml file and I want to remove the labels. I don't think there's an option to turn off labels for points, but you should be able to set the opacity to 0 (I've done this many times before in Google Earth). However, in FME, after I've exposed the kml_label_opacity attribute and set it to 0, the label will still appear when I open the exported .kml file. What am I doing wrong here?

Hi @danilo_fme​ 

Actually after researching some more I realized I can use the KMLStyler and set label opacity to 0. Can't believe I missed this!

Cheers
