Raymondo Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I’m not if it’s me or not. I can’t seem to pull out guides vertically or horizontally like I can in AP and AD. I’m not sure it’s a bug but why can I not use guides?
Old Bruce Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Are you using the Move tool, that is the only one which will allow you to pull guides off of the ruler. Do you have View > Show Guides checked or unchecked. On my system that will turn on if I drag a guide off the ruler but I don't know about other systems.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
Raymondo Posted March 11, 2019 Author Posted March 11, 2019 Yes old Bruce have done all of the obvious checks etc but can’t pull guides out with latest version no matter what. Interesting to hear if anyone else is experiencing this issue.
Raymondo Posted March 11, 2019 Author Posted March 11, 2019 Just had a thought, are you using a mouse or tablet? Probably won’t make any difference but I think I’ll try resurrecting my mouse just to satisfy myself that it’s not something quirky to do with using a pen.

I keep the drivers up to date for this model. Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

Raymondo Posted March 12, 2019 Author Posted March 12, 2019 Yeah I have for years, almost as a bible made sure that I keep everything up to date, in fact my wacom is set to auto update so I'm never behind on that score. Just tried the mouse, as I thought it's made no difference. Didn't really expect it to. I'm using 27 " imac 2017 running 10.14.3. Let get this right, I'm assuming from your response that you don't have any problems with the guide issue I have here, is that right?

Raymondo Posted March 13, 2019 Author Posted March 13, 2019 Ah yeah, just realised going through the guide manager works fine to set guides. Wrongly or rightly, I expected Publisher to behave in the same way as AP/AD whereby you can pull down guides manually....or can you?
applewoodj Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Just tried on version .257 and no problem pulling guides both vertical and horizontal.
Raymondo Posted March 14, 2019 Author Posted March 14, 2019 Reset studio was suggested on another issue which has fixed this issue as well. So all’s well.
