Guides not working


Recommended Posts

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.

Affinity Designer 2.4.0 | Affinity Photo 2.4.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

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.

Using a Wacom tablet without any problems. I keep the drivers up to date for this model.

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?

Assuming correctly. This might be down to a Mojave 10.14.3. issue as I am back on whatever the hell 10.12.6 is.

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?
