Add options to Right Click menu on Guides.

Could the devs please add some options to the guides when you right-click on them?

 

It would be handy to have:

- Clear Guide

- Clear All Guides

- Clear All Horizontal Guides

- Clear All Vertical Guides

- Snap Guide (to pixels)

    Hi Jessica,

     

    Many thanks for your response.

     

    "Could you elaborate a bit on why you would like them in a context menu? "

    - It's mainly to be able to work more quickly, it makes sense to me to have a few options available when you click on a guide, rather than the current option only to edit guide or to use the View Menu. 

    " If instead you meant for it to land on whole pixels when dragging, it should do that already." - so it does, my apologies there. Ignore my point on this! I was sure when I've used them previously they didn't snap to pixels.

     

    Regarding the other options for the list, sure it really quick to drag a single guide to the ruler, but it would be handy to have options to clear the other guides in a menu. I guess I'm used to working with Maya where I use hotboxes to access all the regular menus, having options in the viewport can make little improvements to how long it takes to do things.

     

    Thanks

    Hello @PixelDeluxe,

    Thanks for posting your suggestions. 

    Could you elaborate a bit on why you would like them in a context menu? Currently we have the equivelant of
    "Clear All Guides" in the View menu as "Clear Guides"
    "Snap Guide (to pixels)", if I am guessing your intent correctly as "Snap to Guides." If instead you meant for it to land on whole pixels when dragging, it should do that already.

    As for the remainder:
    Would the right click context menu option to "Clear Guide" to remove a single guide be somehow easier than dragging it to the ruler/composition edge?

    The others I understand as well, but I take it you would like all of these in a context menu instead of the view menu?

    All the best,
    Jessica
