Peg11 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 For the last few versions of AP I have not been able to drag guides from the rulers no matter what I tried including v1.7.0.257. Is it still possible to do this? If so, where am I going wrong? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peg11 Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Yes, I'm using the move tool. I forgot to say I have the latest version of Windows 10. Thank you for responding to my question! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhikkhu Pesala Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 No problem here, also on the latest Windows. If Guides are disable on the View menu, dragging a new guide automatically re-enables them, which makes sense. Do you see the double-headed arrow cursor? Are you using Windows scaling?

Peg11 Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 I think the shot above is what you meant by enabled on the view menu! I don't see a double-headed arrow cursor. The scaling in the display in Windows settings is 100% if that's what you're talking about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhikkhu Pesala Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I see the double-headed arrow cursor as soon as I click on the ruler. If I hold down Alt then click the horizontal ruler, a vertical guide is created at once.

walt.farrell Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I'm not sure what your problem is, @Peg11, as I can drag both horizontal and vertical guides, and I can alt-click on the rulers to set them directly. Could you create a simple .afpub file where you cannot drag guides and attach it for us to look at?

Peg11 Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Here are a screenshot of the cursor while I'm clicking on the ruler and a simple document. AF Sample.afpub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peg11 Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 I just tried resetting AF Publisher starting it holding down control. Now all is well. Thank you for your assistance. It is appreciated! Bhikkhu Pesala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
