After drawing a part with two sides, then I would like to move it all over to one side of the work area or somewhere... How can I select all the vectors from both sides to move them together, so they stay lined up and orientated.
Thanks

Re: Two sided editing
I've been wondering the best way of doing this as well
One way that comes to mind is move the vectors from one side to the other, shift everything, and then move back to the other side.
There's got to be a better way!

On the top side, move the objects where you want them, then draw vector around them. In the modeling tools, it's the one with the scissors. Select the vectors then right click and "copy to other side". On the other side, in the drawing tools, under Align Objects, select the "center objects to the last object selected. Then click the components and then the vectors where it will move components inside the copied vectors.

Re: Two sided editing
I usually just put the vectors from the back into their own set of layers. Move the front, move all vectors as necessary, then turn off all layers except the ones for the back, select visible vectors and move to the back.
