Is there any trick to apply nose art symmetrically?
I have noticed that when you apply two-sided decal with jaws/eyes it is incorrectly rotated on the other side.
I understand that this is done probably in order to not have mirrored text in some decals, but is there any way to apply the forementioned jaws or eyes symetrically? Because applying two separate decals for each side is always a bit off (also - taking two decal slots instead of just one).

If your mousewheel is notched, count the amount of times you scroll to rotate and resize the decal and apply to the other side. For placement, just align it with some bolts or panel lines in the aircraft.

That's what I do currently too. I just hoped there is some "undocumented" better way. So far I tried various combinations of 'T' and 'F', to no avail :)
