      Hi everybody :

           Question :   Can a "part"  of a component be copied to use in another component.  I made this bed.   But......as an after-thought,  I should've saved the  "pineapple" as a separate entity...So I could use it again.  I just want to copy it, and insert it into another piece of (component) furniture.

        Nothing like answering your own question......

               I found the answer....by accident.   I selected the pineapple (from within the component), left-clicked it. There was a prompt about keeping the same scale. I just selected YES.  And SAVED it by itself.   I wasn't sure about the  SCALE prompt.
