this program is so deep

[@CreateForFree]

For a free software package, it certainly has a lot to offer

[@techofe-anopensourcebasedd5822]

@@CreateForFree True that.

Thanks. I didn't know creating guides from objects was possible. That saved me from adjusting multiple guide angles to match an existing object

[@CreateForFree]

Works well for creating margins too, you can duplicate your shape inset it then convert to guides.

Thanks for this informative video. I am using version 1.2.2. and this is still very useful. I need to use Guide more. I am going to look at your other videos.

Glad it was helpful!

Very good video, thanks. I use a similar technique to your last example to sit polygons on a horizontal baseline, as polygons are not always created sitting flat.

[@CreateForFree]

Thanks. I'm not sure but I think holding down ctrl when you drag out a polygon might keep it aligned.
