How do I group components

michael55SE4 — Fri, 04 May 2018 17:35:17 GMT

My designs have a LOT of screws in them, and I need to include them to make sure they're the right length, and for product renderings, but they really clutter up the GUI. I tried to "create a group", by right clicking on a bunch of screws, but that doesn't do anything.

Is there a way to group components? If so, how?

Thanks,

I don't think you can group them like that. You could move the components under a main component so that its like a root 'fasteners' and then each screw is a sub component but honestly I would probably use this forum post to create a selection set of the screws to avoid extra components.

Thanks. I didn't know you could nest components; that's what I was looking for. I was confused by the term "Group" which is standard in other design programs for grouping collections of objects together.
