When part numbers are displayed in a drawing, any equipment numbers that are currently assigned will be marked with parentheses or brackets to distinguish them from real part numbers.

Choose between parentheses and brackets in the Project Options, Display Formats dialog ( Part Number tab). Use the Display Format for Equipment Numbers field to make the selection.

If there are real part numbers assigned in the project and you wish to display the corresponding equipment number, you can also use the Project Options, Display Formats dialog ( Part Number tab). There are two options in the Display on Drawing/BOM Explorer area of the dialog.
