Symbols don't transfer from Creo Illustrate to Thingworx Studio. There is a workaround, which is to add the actual symbol models to your BOM in Creo Illustrate. To do this, find your Creo Illustrate symbols library (usually in {user-directory}\AppData\Roaming\PTC\Illustrate\SymbolsLibrary\Shape), and import the *.ol model for the symbol you want into your illustration. Use this instead of the Symbols feature in Creo Illustrate, and it will carry over when you bring it into Thingworx Studio.

Here are a couple of screenshots, showing loading the symbol model from the symbol library, and then showing the loaded model in the studio canvas.
