Thanks to all for the helpful suggestions. I have saved all of them and am looking forward to trying them out (if I can ever catch up with my yard work). This has been a very positive first experience in this forum, and I appreciate the patience and helpfulness you've shown to a Newbie at sketchup. Thanks. Jim

RE: Repeating last action
Great idea, Dave. How would I go about adjusting the location of the component origin and axes if I have a component that needs it? Thanks.

RE: Repeating last action
I think I didn't use a very good example by talking about the joist hangers. I was talking about the initial placement of the first hanger after downloading it from 3D warehouse. But I got it done. I'm more interested in the general principle of "Repeat last action", no matter what that action was. I found a previous thread that explains what I'm getting at a little better than I did. http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10%26amp;t=8427

Repeating last action
I thought I had posted this question, but made a mistake. I'm looking for a shortcut, keyboard or otherwise, to be able to repeat the last action I took. For example, in aligning a joist hanger even with the face of the joist that it will be mounted on, I was able to change format and increments to move the hanger .010" at a time. But it would be nice to be able to just use a shortcut to repeat that .010" move until the alignment is right. I was having to move the hanger a bit, type in 010, and hit enter each time I needed to move it.
I know I could select "glue to " vertical surface" in Model Info, File, but I may have a use for a repeat shortcut in the future. Does anyone know of such a shortcut for repeating last action? Thanks.
