Move a guide to an absolute position

Postby solarstandard » Sun Aug 11, 2013 12:15 pm

Hello,

Is it possible to move a guide to an absolute position? Let's assume snapping to a grid at that position is not an option.

Thanks

Hello there!

By double clicking on a guide you can set exact location and rotation values.
Also, if easier, you can create guides from a path by pressing Shift+G.

Good luck!

Thanks! Haven't thought about the double-click - that's exactly what I needed.
