Setting an Object in Another Object

[rabbithutch]

I’m using SU Make. I have the need to insert one object into another replacing the area that the object is inserted into.

In the attached, I have a door as one object and the inner portion of the door with lights as another object that I want to insert into the door and have part of the door, within the frame, also appear along with the lights.

I’m sure that is clear as mud.

Can what I want to do be done? I have a dim recollection of having done so in the past but don’t remember how nor even know enough to search for how to do it.

Can’t see your model at the moment, here is a guess based on your text:

Select what you want to move within the other component.

Edit > Cut

Double click to edit / open the container component

Edit > Paste in Place

Close the container component

This will put back what you cut exactly where it was, but now it will be inside the other component.
