Save to file, edit the .pcb, reload. Or start with a schematic so you can name all the nets easily. > 2. How do I move a refdes without moving the component?

I see how > to use the buffer command to rotate or invert but instead of rotating > or inverting the selected component it inserts a new one. Use the rotate tool. You don't "invert" components, you move them to the other side of the board with the 'b' key. > 4.
