      Hello. I have a component inside another component. I want to make to take this component outside, independent from the other one. How can I do this?

      Thank you!

        Do you want to leave the outer component basically as it is? Open that component, select the inner component and hit Edit>Cut (or the appropriate keyboard shortcut), close the component by clicking out in space or via the right click menu. Hit Edit>Paste in place. The component you cut from the bigger component will now be outside the big component but in the same location.

        You could also do this via Outliner by clicking and dragging the component name from inside the bigger component to outside of it.
