Center/reflect/par tools

Is there a way to better control the center, reflect, and parallel tools?  What I mean is they "bounce" all around and trying often to get the tool to act upon the selection I want can be a challenge.  Is there a trick to this?

Not really... Isolating layers in some circumstances, drawing temporary CAD, and very slow/precise mouse movement. Other than that, I think WYSIWYG.

Also keep in mind that the reflect tool can do things that one might not expect.  I found recently when working with metal C channel floor framing that reflecting a floor section actually reversed the open or soft side of the C channel.
