Re: Inserting Balloon

Go ahead and let it insert the new balloon.  If you have an item number 
assigned to the Multiple catalog entries it should insert the additional 
balloon(s) while replacing the old.  I have a video I shot that shows how to 
do this.  If you want it, give me your e-mail address and I will send it.

Thanks for your reply.

When i tried the things that you have mentioned,it didnt work.

Let me explain what i did.
1) I selected the per part number basis (excluding assycode combinations) 
from the Item numbering setup dialog box (that is in component tab >Project 
properties dialog box)

2) Then i inserted the balloon in footprint.

3) Then, i right-clicked the same footprint and selected the edit footprint; 
the Panel layout -component insert/edit dialog box. I selected the multiple 
catalog button from Catalog data area, and then i inserted different item 
number in the item number edit box in the multiple bill of material 
information dialog box

4) Then again, i selected the insert balloon tool; it displays a message 
"This component already has a balloon attached.delete existing and insert 
new one" in the Existing item balloon dialog box.

So, please let me how can i insert second balloon to the same footprint. Am 
i doing anything wrong.

I am using ACADE 2009.

Thanks in advance.
