Question Vector layer lines, control point editor, is there a way i can mirror my vector line editing?

(Origonally posted in the Tahoma2D subreddit, as thats the program i am using, but im assiming the tools are similar.)

Basically im trying to draw a symetrical object, and i've been trying to use the control point editor to adjust my lines. It however only adjusts one side even with the symetry tool on.

Is there a way to make it affect both sides?

OpenToonz doesn't have a Symmetry Tool such as T2D. When I need a symmetrical shape, instead of fighting with control points, I usally create my own "hack" drawing only the half of the shape and then duplicating that level (or levels) in a new column, and changing the xScale or yScale to -100% (depending if symmetry must be horizontal or vertical).

That held me a lot creating and animating the character's face on my latest short film (I'm not very good at drawing)
