Stan_Affinity_Owner1982 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hi all! I’m trying to check if there is a way to get rulers or guides turned on when doing work within designer? many thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butler To Cats Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 No rulers as such, I don't think (could be wrong), but there are certainly guides. Designer persona, Documents menu (hold down the question mark in the corner to see the menus/tools labelled) > Guides. Use the context options at the bottom to add a vertical or horizontal guide through the middle of the document. Use the Move tool to drag the guide into place. Depending on your snap settings (I think), guides will snap to existing objects. Also in the context options while in "guide mode": Numerically move/place a selected guide, create a guide using numerical positioning, and turn on Column Guides (regular divisions of row and column guides). Document menu > Snapping to turn on/off snapping to guides and other objects. (Use the horseshoe magnet in the toolbar to turn overall snapping on/off).
