Problem with IV - IPN file and Exploded view
For some reason my sub assys in my layout drawing Clutch Bell and also Carb
are putting the same number in the balloons with these sub assys even when they have there own name in each IPT....
Can any one tell me a way around to this problem?
Thank you in advance

If you wanted to, this would make a great tutorial to post.
Can you share the files? I've got a couple ideas to try, but I'm not sure if any of them will work.
Solution 1 - All parts number sequentially
1. Delete the existing parts list and balloons.
2. In each assembly and sub-assembly enable the and parts only Bill of Material. (Assembly Ribbon, Manage Tab, Bill of Material button) Right Click on the Parts only tab then Enable.
3. Go back to the IDW and recreate the parts list, be sure to change the BOM settings to parts only.
4. Re-create all ballooning.
Solution 2 - Parts numbered with structure - ie Carb parts become 13.1, 13.2, etc.
1. Delete the existing parts list and balloons.
2. In each assembly and sub assembly enable the structured Bill of materials (Assembly Ribbon, Manage Tab, Bill of Material button) Right Click on the Structured tab then Enable.
3. After enabling, Right click again, select properties, change the level first to all, and select the delimiter you want.
4. Go back to the IDW and recreate the parts list, be sure to change the BOM settings to parts only.
5. Re-create all ballooning.
