How to update component list of local collection

SketchUp
1

I am building a simple model for some custom cabinets. As I go I am adding components to a local collection so that I can reuse them in another cabinet. The problem is after I save each component into the collection the list for that collection is not updated in the component window. I cannot find a way to have SketchUp refresh the list other than quit and restart. Yes I did double check and make sure that I am saving into the correct folder.

One easy way to do this is to open the secondary pane in the Components window, set it to your local collection and then drag the components from the In Model library to the collection.

Thanks, that works. And I also found the “Refresh” action at the bottom of the component view pull down menu, top left above the component lists.
