Connecting Symbols

Is there a way to unconnected connecting symbols or to choose one of the connecting symbol if I want to use a specific symbol from the set? I want to use the cliff symbols but I want to choose which ones I want to use and place them myself.

You can paste a long line of cliffs and then pick separate symbols from that line of cliffs. You might need to draw quite a lot of wiggly cliffs to get the whole set, but that's by far the easiest way.
If all you want to do is place individual symbols from one of the City Cliffs Cartographer's Annual sets, select your first symbol choice, then right click to call up the Symbol Parameters dialogue box. Once there, uncheck the "Smart tracking" box and check the "Disable smart symbols" box. Then you can just pick and add whichever of the cliff symbols you want to your map without them connecting to one another as they ordinarily do.
I didn't realise that would work with connecting symbols. Thanks Wyvern. Now I'm trying not to laugh and groan at all the times I've drawn long snakes of connecting symbols just to grab the one I want!
Thank you
I actually did just this three days ago Sue, hence why I'm currently so informed on the subject!
You're welcome @Jeff B !
