I seem to have made a component made up of components which is causing me some grief. How can undo all the components so I can just define one compnent?

Cheers

See if there's an "explode" command. There is such a command in AutoCAD. Then gather all of the parts to make a new "block." (again, AutoCAD terminology).

There is an explode component command on sketchup. Just right click on the component & choose explode.

Does pressing down the control key and clicking the mouse button work? That is the way to do a normal right click on the mac - might work here:)

I'm a Mac user too. I decided I wanted to be able to play a computer game called StarCraft, and using control-click just wasn't going to be fast enough. I got a fairly inexpensive 2-button mouse from Logitech and it works great on the Mac. An entire right-click world has opened up for me!
