The only method I have been able to find is to add a balloon for each item, but i don't want to show 3 item balloons with 3 leaders, I

that you can;
1) Add baloons
2) Update Part list
3) Remove leaders
4) Use origin tool If you want associative connect them.

Hi Siwy,

yes that is what I am after. How do you go about removing leaders?

You can also create the text relationship to the callout attribute of the component that you wish to associate the balloon with. I think it is probably a line ball call as to whether it takes more or less clicks.
