And thank you for the slight changes in the page navigation/object moving behaviour. It's been saving me quite a bit of frustration. Page up and down always work correctly now. It's very fast to navigate between pages and moving things around.
Hovering over guides still moves the page view when using the cursor keys, but by locking the base layout guides it doesn't happen as often.
In regards to guides I have a request:
Would it be possible to implement a grouping system in the Guides panel with visibility icons for each group/folder?
I always use multiple grid systems in my layouts (one for margins, one for a common column grid, one for major alignments, and so on.
Currently there is no way whatsoever to group different guide systems or even turn these on and off independently.
Nor is there a way to assign a custom colour to different guide systems.
For example, I cannot just show the guides for margins, fold lines, and primary alignment guides, while hiding a modular grid of 12 by 8. And that modular grid, as important as it is to have in my layout, gets in the way of fine-tuning the layout when I need to rely on the other three grid systems.
It makes a right mess of working with guide systems, because there is no way to:
- quickly hide and show groups of related guide systems
- differentiate between guide systems via different colours.
The way I work around these limitations is to set up different PRESETS and remove and add guides that way.
But that is not a viable or efficient method to deal with multiple grid systems in a document. It is cumbersome and super-slow to work with.
I've created a quick mock-up how all these issues could be resolved with a redesign of the Guides panel. I hope it will be considered, as it would dramatically improve the daily workflow with guides in PhotoLine.
The eye would hide or show a guide or group of guides.
The colours would control the colour used to display the guide(s) in the view.
