Placing symbols and shapes on specific sheets
I was just wondering what the easiest way to place a symbol or shape on a specific sheet is, when it's being placed or drawn?
It *seems* like, regardless of the sheet I've selected as current (by using the "Sheets" function and putting a check mark on the sheet I want to be active), the software wants to put the symbol or shape where it wants to.
I then have to use the "Move to Sheet" function to transfer the symbol or shape to the sheet that it I want it on.
I'd like to be able to make a sheet active, after which anything that's drawn or placed would then be put on that sheet.
And off topic here, but what would be the scale in order to print a square grid at 1.375 inches?
I'd like to produce map tiles with squares slightly larger than 1 inch, and it looks like using squares of 1.375 would fit fairly nicely on 8.5 x 11 inch paper. It'd produce a 6 x 8 grid of 1.375 inch squares, and use 8 x 11 inches of each sheet.
Thanks in advance.

One of the changes we requested for CC3 was all symbols go to Symbols sheet. I think there are some exceptions, but that is the way I remember it.
You can then right click on Change Properties icon on left side of CC3, and move to another sheet that symbol.
