Items on wrong sheet/layer - please help
Hi there
I have drawn a large amount of mountains and was on the " SYMBOLS " sheet / layer.
1. What is the default layer for these to be ?
2. How do I copy them to this layer ?
3. Is it not just easier to rename this layer to the answer for number 2 and then make a new sheet / layer for " SYMBOLS "
4. Would the new " SYMBOLS " sheet / layer still function as should ?
Thanks

Sheets are like transparent, overlapping pieces of perspex. Layers are simply a tag or category. They don't affect drawing order. So, in a building, the floors would be like sheets, and the layers would be "furniture" "PCs".
The symbols should be on the SYMBOLS sheet and the MINERALS/MOUNTAINS layer.
If they aren't, we can fix that. Let me know.

I understand for I come from a Photoshop environment
They are not, so what are the steps to rectify this?

Select the symbols (if you don't know the selection process, let me know)
Right click, Do It.
Pull down the layer list to select MINERALS/MOUNTAINS
Pull down the sheet list to select SYMBOLS
OK
Our drawing styles and templates should ensure that your entities end up on the correct layers and sheets without work from you, so I'm not quite sure why this has happened.
