I've found gost come to my documents. Sorry I don't know what you call it, but it makes me uncomfortable. I'm not sure if my file is damaged or not.

Are they Column Guides?

If not, uploading the document to the forum might help

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

It came from Column Guides. and it doesn't go away even if I delete artboards.

It comes when you click outside the artboards and drag you mouse to select something.

To get rid of them this process worked for me on iPad.

  • select the bottom layer „Template #1“
  • Reset the column guides for that layer to 1 column, 1 row, and deactivate „visible“ 
  • Select all layers
  • deactivate „guides visible“
  • Now the guides are no longer shown

Never the less, it seems a bug that the guides are shown on two levels in 2 sizes, inside every artboard plus on canvas, too.

My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected.

Hi @BBG3,

Thanks for your report & file provided!

I can confirm I've been able to replicate this issue with your file and I will be logging it with our developers now.

I have also been able to recreate this in a new document (steps below), which should help our devs to resolve this issue.

  • Create new non-artboard document
  • View > Guides > apply column guides
  • Artboard Tool > Insert Artboard
    (!) Note the Column Guides disappear, but will now show when creating a marquee selection
  • Draw a new artboard next to the second one
    (!) Now when marquee selecting, these 'ghost' guides encompass both the first and second artboard area

I hope this helps :)

Hi NotMyFault, 

Thanks for your help. I can't find "visible" and "guides visible". Could you send me a screenshot?

Thanks
