I made this post back in 2008.

A few weeks ago I asked Sdmitch for some help and he came up this script
Cut a selection within a Component Instance and Paste in Place from All Instances

This script is located in the Edit Menu and will be only work on a selection within a "top level component" not from a selection within a component that is contained in another component.

Open a component instance, make a selection (it can be a group, component, loose geometry or any combination of them), run the script and pick a layer to paste the selection to (the current layer is initially shown in the list).

The script name and description in the Edit menu is a bit long so feel free to rename them.

Thanks Sdmitch.

Here is an test file to experiment with (SU2015 format)
Cut SELECTION from WITHIN A Component Instance and Paste In Place outside of each Component Instance.skp
