Best practice when setting bevelled metro tiles

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Advice please on setting out bevelled metro tiles in particular situations.
1. For internal corner should you set out to avoid finishing with a full tile in corner when using brick bond? Concerned how the silicon bead might look as one row full tile thickness next row thinner as just bevel thickness.
2. Tiling a window sill. Do you set out rows below the sill level to avoid bevel setting height of sill. Concerned the horizontal trim will not be level with vertical side trim unless you set horizontal trim proud of tiles slightly and so cause a slight lip.

I have tried to find a tutorial or book to cover these points but haven't found any. I am relatively new to tiling so any help very much appreciated. Regards and thanks in advance.
