Description josephbupe 2016-11-25 08:16:10 UTC 
Hi,

When creating guides, I often want to align them with the ruler markings. Unfortunately, it isn't always easy to align individual guides against the ruler markings with exact precision.

IMO, It would be nice to have a Snap guides-to-the-ruler option under the View menu to help with that.

In Photoshop they say you can align the guide with the ruler ticks by holding down Shift as you drag the guide.

Kind regards.

I find the shift idea much better than another menu item.
