mschwerer Posted November 28, 2018 Author Share Posted November 28, 2018 But you should be able to set the guides from the rulers with the cursur. Affinity designer do that. So - is it a bug ??? jmwellborn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither Text tool will let me drag a guide off of the rulers. I have a MAC 27” retina display with Sierra OS. I cannot set Guides using the move tool. Just tried it again with a new document in Publisher v. 174.

Old Bruce Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Have you tried doing the starting up with the control key held down to clear the user settings?

No. No need to. We have our answer in another section on this topic in these forums. We have to use the zoom tool and click inside a single-page document window to get them.

mschwerer Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 i cleared the user settings - so it works fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 This should only work with the move tool. If you had an older build which had the buttons to turn this on and off for the tools it may have been turned off and the setting save but as that buttons been removed subsequently your user setting have not been updated to suit. A crtl and run would have reset these now allowing them to work for you Cheers Serif Europe Ltd - Check the latest news at www.affinity.serif.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
