How do i delete components?
-
I think you only insert the componet in the sketchup file. If you want to always be in the component box, you have to copy the components to the component folder, or add a library in the component box

Notice that the component browser serves two purposes: you can access different pre-installed components in your component libraries and you can manage the components you are using in your current model (this is the "in model" folder in the browser).
Now if you have unused (and unwanted) components in your model, you can "purge" them by accesing a flyout menu by clicking on the small,blue arrow next to the pulldown menu in the browser.
Actually you can also do this with layers,materials and styles or do everything at once from the Window > model info > statistics > purge all command.
yup i got it thanx guys

Have you seen the video tutorials? They are excellent and explain most things about using SketchUp. It might save you time posting.

about 10 hours watching videos against 1 min posting and a big thank you...but you're right this is a very basic question

Oh Burkhard - shame on you
You haven't seen these cool videos before? I know that most people are too lazy to read, but come on, it's just like watching TV!I guess this means that some people haven't seen all the cool stuff on YouTube either. There are so many things to improve our knowledge of SketchUp there, no matter how good we think you are.

Yep, Sketchup Videos are my second TV experience. But I have a big laugh about the time saver argument.
But I'm wiiling to shame

If one wants to learn SU he/sge will go through the videos, the manuals and the tutorials provided everywhere sooner or later. A couple of questions won't hurt anyone but may help to discover these resources.
I remember my first dome - I was building it for days (connecting all pieces of lines) until I found out of the lathe function of the follow me tool
That was when I decided to go through all the tutorials and all imaginable and accessible resources of info -
