Darcy,
This morning while checking emails I noticed something about your query
that I hadn't yesterday. In the subject you state you want to change the
position of the component designator, in the body of you message you say a
component primitive. The two are very different.
Component primitives can be moved by the methodology that I mentioned
yesterday. Component designators cannot be moved by the same method as
component designators are a system generated item that isn't placed within the
creation of the library land pattern. I don't believe there is any way to move
them collectively within P99SE, there may be a way to do it within DXP/AD using
selection and offsetting from the original locations by certain X and Y
coordinate statements.
Sincerely,
Brad Velander

What version of protel are you using?
In DXP on you can embed PCBs into a panel with step an repeats. When you do
it this way any change made on the initial PCB is reflected on th panel ad
also the gerbers when generated.
