This command allows you to merge components together. Basically it merges the geometries of components into another.
This video shows how to use it:

Hi,emeritus:
My VC version is 4.1.The following error occurred when I used the Merge Components add-ons
"Traceback (most recent call last):
File âfile:///C:\Users\Lenovo\Documents\Visual Components\4.1\My Commands\MergeComponents\MergeCompLauncher.py::â, line 6, in
NameError: Attribute or method âPythonActionPanelâ not found. "
Do you have any idea what this is about that
Hello there,
sorry WongXY Iâve no answer for you. 
I just wanted to note a little tip here: I experimented several shifts when I merged several components containing transforms without expressions and all pivots coordinates set to 0.
(same effect if I collapsed the transform inside one component)
I dealt with it by exporting all components selected to one DWG, then reimported it again, and voilĂ !
Donât know if itâs a bug, or something

I used this to merge 3 basic shapes, but I still canât make the completed part come out of a feeder. It only allows me to select one of the parts. Any ideas on how I can make a custom part (from basic shapes) and use that new part from a feeder?
Hi!
After using this feature to merge two components, Iâm no longer able to create new translational joints on the resulting component. After I create a joint, the âJointTypeâ drop-down is blocked, and when hovering the mouse on it, it says âediting is not allowed when one or more interfaces of the component are connectedâ. Any ideas?
