Ballon Number Options

Is there an option to allow the ballon number to show the 'sub-assembly number' not the 'part no.'. ie if part 14 in the BOM is an assembly with parts 14.1, 14.2, 14.3 etc, is it possible to have the ballon only show "14", but have the Part List show 14, 14.1, 14.2, etc.??

Every time I try it, I add the balloons with the parts list collapsed (showing 14 only, not 14.1 etc), which adds the ballon OK, but as soon as I expode the part list to show 14.1, 14.2 etc the ballon number changes to show 14.1.



I have tried to edit the ballon item back to 14, but this changes the parts list by making part 14.1 to 14, so now I have two items numbered 14, the assembly and its first part.

The only solution I can see is to completely overide the number in the ballon, but this will remove any automatic updates if I (or anyone else) happens to change the Parts list.





Hopefully there is any easy solution that I am just failing to see,

Thanks in advance,
