SW2004 Assembly Drawing Problem

SW2004 Assembly Drawing Problem

SW2004 Assembly Drawing Problem

(OP)
I have an assembly drawing that contains a section view. The section view requires break lines to fit within the titleblock. The components in the section view are ballooned.
I am encountering a problem when I edit any of the parts in the assembly. My balloons appear to be shifted over slightly so they don't touch the proper component. When I select the balloon it highlights the component in green where it should be for the balloon to touch it while also displaying the component in its "shifted" position. My hatch patterns also appear to be shifted to fill where the "green" outline of components appear when a balloon is selected.
I have tried unbreaking and rebreaking the view, redrawing, rebuilding. The only fix I have come up with is to delete the section view and recreate it.
Anyone else see this? More importantly, does anyone know a better fix?
Thanks in advance,
Louis

I have seen this. The text/FCB's on the dwg face also shifts. I have asked support and in forums, I have found no one so far that knows how to fix it.

When I print the drawing the ouput is correct. I think I will live with this for now as I know I will have several design changes before completion.
