Hi Ahteris

It is possible to symmetry draw, but it requires that you setup your drawing in tiles. 
look at the example below:

I set the same tile number for each tile, by left-clicking on them. Afterwards I use the rotating and flipping options to flip the tiles according to the way i want them to be symmetrical.

You can hover over the tile tool to see it's shortcuts, to understand how it works.

Very cool workaround, but I suggest that a symmetry feature like Aseprite is added. (Arbitrary symmetry planes, lets you set the symmetry at any X and Y)

Agree with oxysoft. However, the fact that we can still do it is great. Thanks for responding!
