Silkscreen layers for both sides of the board are configured by default. 
To place text or lines on solder silk you have to flip the board with the 
tab key (or shift-tab if you prefer a left-right flip). This is like 
physically turning the board to the other side. Imageine, the solder 
layer is on top, and component layer is bottom. Objects on component silk 
layer will be greyed out. If you draw to silk, lines will always go  to 
the current top silk layer, which is solder now. The same happens to 
components and their silk screen.
