      I'm working out some ideas on a complex architectural model. Along the way I've been making components, and components inside components so I can keep things straight and separate.

      I just added some columns that I'd like to include in one of those components. Problem is, this component is inside another, and the columns I'd like to add are outside of it all. If I was just trying to jump in one layer, I'd explode, select the columns, then remake the component. Because I'm trying to go in two layers, I can't do that here.

      I could pull that off on the first component, but the second has several instances. I'm afraid there would be chaos if I exploded it.

      Any suggestions?

      TIA,

      JIm

        you could just copy the object and paste it inside the component...

          As lucifer says, select the column->ctrl+x->go in to the component you want the column in->edit->paste in place
