Components can act like folders(or containers) for other components

 

I have a Component called Fixture

Which contains all the Components that make up the Fixture

how does that work when all the fixture pieces are imported from other existing Fusion files?

You just activate the fixture component before inserting all the external files.

 

seeing as all the components have already been inserted in your picture you can also drag and drop all those components into the "Fixture" component.
