3. “Create New Component” dialog window will open. 
   • Select nothing to create a part in the assembly.
   • Select an object/body in the assembly to import the body in the new part. (The selected body will be deleted from the assembly and imported in the new part)
   • Select parts to create component/sub-assembly in the assembly. (The selected part will be a component of the new sub-assembly.)
4. A new part/component will create in the assembly. You can see the new component in the Assembly navigator.

   You can make modeling or change the model when it is active in the assembly.
