HOW DO I ADD AND REMOVE A GUIDE ON AFFINITY DESIGN FOR IPAD

[Faeriewarrior]

I am really struggling with the Ruler Guide. It’s unreliable. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. I cannot consistently pick a guide ruler to move or delete it. I have loads on the outside of my art boards and I can’t control them.  Can you please help?

Hi Faeriewarrior and Welcome to the Forums,

 

If you enable the Guides option on the Document menu, then tap on one of the guides you want to delete and it should then turn into a red dashed line and you'll have the option to Delete this on the toolbar along the bottom

I'd like much more detail about the guides.  Why are x and y origins set?  if I want a guide 2" from the top of my artboard, it subtracts 0.113" and places my line 1.887 from the top of the artboard, not 2"?  Changing the x origin to 0 does nothing as the app changes it back automatically.

Where is the ruler?  Its something I use often....
