I'm wondering why my balloons are changing from the ITEM number to the PART number, and how to change them back without doing a manual entry.  It seems to only happen when I've made the drawing, then go back and edit/save the part and return to the drawing.  I've attached a photo showing the mixed bag, items 2 & 10 haven't been changed so they are still the same.

I just found I can toggle the BOM column for ITEM back and forth from PART NO and it seems to show backwards some of the time (have ITEM selected, but the rows display PART and vice versa), and I have to highlight a row here and there to make it update.  Eventually though it did reset itself back to normal, but this is really frustrating!
