Bug report: irritating behaviour of ballons on drawing

[greenveg]

In a the main drawing for a larger design (~30 components) I'm working the first two drawing sheets contain the BOM and balloon callouts for the assembly views.

Every time I update the project to the latest version of the design the balloons revert to some idiotic preset placement. Balloons I have previous deleted reapper as well.

I'd rather not share the files or screenprint. They are for a client.

My system:
Macbook Pro 16" running Big Sur 11.2.3

Processor: 2,3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9

RAM: 64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4

AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8 GB / Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

Hi @greenveg 

I understand that you don't want to put this on the public forum. Would you be able to email me with the details?

Hi @greenveg ,

The behaviour what you are seeing, that with updating the project version the balloons gets repositioned, is an intended behaviour.
The reason behind is that the balloons of newly added/deleted part from the project, should get auto added/ deleted. And while adding new balloons of newly added part, we try to make sure that as much possible balloons must not get overlapped. So to keep the balloons away from each other, we need to reshuffle the auto balloon positions.
If you don't want the balloons to be reshuffled then you can delete all the auto balloons, and place balloons manually. For the manually added balloons we don't reshuffle the position.

The second part of your query where the deleted balloons reappears, for that it would be great if you can share some short video, so that we can analyse the actual behaviour.
