Can't create horizontal guide

Hello,

I'm trying to add a horizontal guide, but even when I request "horizontal" from the drop down menu, it still creates a vertical guide. I'm not able to create anything but vertical guides. Seems like a bug in this Beta version.

      FWIW: The Add a Guide dialog does work in 26.2.2 (shipping)

      Yes, ​@BeratGL’s way works, it’s ctrl-r to show the Rulers, and you can click and drag down from the ruler across the top to create a horizontal guide line.

      That dialog needs some attention, as like you guys are saying, it doesn’t produce a horizontal guide line when asked. Win11 25H2 (clean) / PP 26.5 b23

      Yes, this is a bug indeed. I would recommend you to use ctrl + r and add a horizontal guide manually as a workaround for now.
