New to PCB Editor and some questions

 I've used Layout for many years and this week started my first board in PCB Editor. I haven't taken a class and have stumbled along with a book I bought on Amazon so help.

First off the colors don't work correctly for me. I cannot get the bottom pads to appear red and the top pads to appear blue. I've turned off every color and brought up just the top and bottom pad colors to try and get it correct. I can get the top and bottom silkscreen to agree with the chosen color but not the pads. I did find that using hollow pads does at least give me the chosen color for the outline of the pad which is good enough for now but I sure would like to see colors that match the selected color. Another strange thing is the pads on the parts when filled is selected can take on various colors on both the top and bottom layers. It seems messing around with the color selections cause this and there is no way to undo it.

I'm using the symbols for capacitors and resistors that come with Editor. I find that I can move these symbols on top of another part that has a place outline and no DRC results. I only see DRC's when the pads of these parts overlap the pad of another part. Perhaps these library parts weren't create with place outlines or I need to turn something on to get place outline DRC errors. 

When highlight is turned on in Editor I properly see the part selected highlight over in Capture but I cannot move the part in Editor. In Layout I could cross probe and move parts at the same time.  I would like to be able to select and move a part in Editor and have the part and associated page in Capture follow the selection.

One thing I miss from Layout is hitting the C key to center the view. With Editor I feel like I'm having to use the mouse wheel a lot to reposition and place parts. Are there any hotkeys that can make centering easier? 

 When I select a symbol in Capture it highlights properly in Editor but the display zooms in and fills with that part. If the part is an 0402 resistor the part fills the display. I would like no zoom only highlite so I can survey the location and zoom when I want to after the selection. This must be a setting somewhere.
