I'm working in a document with size A0 (1189mm x 841mm). When i try to set the spread origin in the guides manager to coordinates greater than 400mm it instantly resets it to 400mm. Working on AD Version 2.0.3. on Windows 10. I mentioned this on V1 more than 3 years ago and it still isn't fixed

Hi, i have an issue with guides: In many cases, i want the guides to start (zero- coordinate) in the middle (1/2 of width and height) of the image. According to help, it should be possible to set this point by mouse, or by guides manager. Unfortunately, the guides manager caps my input at 400px, despite a document of 2160x2160px. It even shows the px setting 1080 created by mouse, but when editing the numbers directlys, the cap of 400px cuts in again. Bug, feature, or dumb user? The image shows X unedited, and y (which was 1080, too) capped after trying to edit. file:///C:/Program%20Files/Affinity/Affinity%20Photo/PhotoHelp/Contents/Resources/en-US.lproj/pages/DesignAids/rulers.html To reposition the spread origin: Do one of the following: Drag the spread origin from the horizontal/vertical ruler intersection to position it on the page. If snapping has been activated, the spread origin will be able to snap to objects on the page. From the View menu, access the Guides Manager. Enter X and Y values into the Spread Origin section.
