    What determines the line number of a part in an assembly when you go to
    balloon it out? Is it order of insertion?

    Yes. This can be changed by dragging BOM line up or down and then selecting
    renumber, this moethod is permanent. Or you can manually renumber them and
    select sort, however this method is not permanent and if you delete the BOM
    the numbers revert.

    I believe it is the order in which they appear in the browser of the
    assembly.

    I have used this to my advantage by sequencing the parts in the
    assembly, then having the numbers assigned in the drawing the way I'd
    like them.

    Mark:

    I did an end run around forgetting the caps lock - I switched to using
    lower case on my drawings. It makes them way easier to read. I know
    it's not ANSI but I figure those standards were based on hand-written
    letters, not computer type-set.

    Mark my words, this is the beginning of the revolution to change that
    standard.
