Affinity Designer: How can you copy guides?

[NAR]

Hi all, 

is it possible to copy and paste guides on the exact same position on another artboard? Like I am used to in Illustrator?

Thanks for your help

I’m pretty sure that it isn’t possible to copy guides from one artboard to another artboard.
You can create a blank artboard, setup the guides as you need them, and then copy that artboard as required but you can’t copy the guides from one artboard to another artboard that already exists.

I also really need to manage my column guides with ease.

I need to to have a preset so I can create and change them whenever I need to.

It is so time consuming to change guides on artboards one by one, specially when you have many pages.

According to your screenshot, I assume you mean column guides rather than just guides

If so, and you also have APhoto you can create a macro to add the column guides, then replay that as and when required on your Artboards

Thanks @carl123

I like that. 👍 I hope macro tool comes to Affinity Designer and Publisher too.
