  After you add a new piece (if you're using the mouse), you'll have to
move it closer to the other bricks. Working with multiple views should
help you see where the bricks really are.

  Sure, but you have to tell the program how you built it. Add a few
bricks, advance one step and then add some more bricks, take a look at
the tutorial.

> 3) Can I make pieces to add to the library?

  Yes, make them in LDraw format and then use the convert utility to
import the files.
