I created a symbol and added to my system library using the "one-step" method.  Everything appeared fine after it created the symbol from the exploded drawing.  If I draw a symbol from the library the paint textures are not present (such as concrete and earth).  If I move the original symbol, the textures get left behind.  I noted this is not an issue with the boxes that were filled with a texture to represent insulated studs, etc.

 

I attached a screen snip.  Symbol on the left doe not have the paint texture.  One on right does, which is where it was created.

 

Doe anyone know how to make the paint texture remain with the symbols?

The softplan community on FB was able to help me out.  If anyone else has trouble, you have to explode the paint so it becomes individual shapes.  It will then work.
