Mabian Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hello, Following the documentaion there should be a View menu item called "Show Column Guides" that should allow hiding/showing column guides. I cannot find it (I'm on Photo persona). I have enabled 3 by 3 column guides but cannot find a way to switch them on/off other than setting the column/row number back and forth between 1 and the number I need. Quite unconvenient, I'd say. Affinity Photo 1.8.3 on Windows 10 x64 (Italian). Thanks, Mario HenrikF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started to say that, too. Then I discovered that the Guides Manager (View > Guides Manager) lets you configure column guides in Photo, too. (At least, in the current 1.8.4 beta.)

Mabian Posted May 11, 2020 Author Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hello, have you checked the Affinity PHOTO help? It both mentions the guides (that are indeed there in the application) and the menu item to show/hide them... So... missing functionality or error in help ... EDIT: everything, as mentioned, in 1.8.3 release. Thanks, Mario Chris B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted May 14, 2020 Staff Share Posted May 14, 2020 It looks like it is missing from Windows. It's there on macOS. Nice catch Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
