I found this topic from 2012 and there were no real answers in this thread, so, once again I'm asking if anyone has found a fix for this. When I move a symbol from one layer to another layer, it changes the Z height back to the symbol's Z height it was originally made at. For example, I move all my house lights to a new layer, and they all end up below ground.
It appears to only be some symbols that do this, others do not. I can't find the difference between the symbols. For example, "Furn Stand Music" does this but "Audio Speaker Marshall Amp" does not.
It appears one workaround is to edit the symbol, copy the items, and create a new symbol. Is this removing some sort of setting that I just can't see in Spotlight? (Story-aware?) Kind of tedious!
Update from the Spotlight Facebook group:
"Well. The Music Stand has Story aware features enabled and the Marshall Amp doesn't. I suspect it has something to do with that. I don't know why this happens if you are using Spotlight which doesn't have this feature. I suspect it is a bug that most testers won't necessarily have been able to pick up because they are all on Designer Versions.
I will post as a bug in the morning and see what comes back."
It appears I won't be able to fix this mistake as I can't see "Story-Aware" features.
