Hi,
i would like to have balloons at my drawings (NX 7.5) in one line.
We are used to set it according a edge of the screen.... BUT this is just "Russia" solution.
Leider I have not found any tool, what would help me...(as is CREO´s Snap lines)
What do you use???
Thanx

One option is to turn on the Grid: Preferences -> Grid. Enter a major grid spacing equal to your balloon diameter (or larger as desired), and turn on the 'show grid' and 'snap to grid' options. Now you can quickly drag balloons into alignment.

I do as cowski recommends.

You can also select several ID balloons, press MB3 and you'll find options to 'Group' them horizontally or vertically.

Guys,
thank You for the answers!
The grid is really useful, I like it :)
I usually could not use The groups, because then the balloons are stick together with one common arrow....
