P: Enhance guides to allow angled/perspective guides

As I said, Photoshop is a raster editor;  not a vector graphics app.  You can't change a zebra's stripes.  Yes, it can make shapes.  And to a limited extent it can edit video, too.  But it's not my go-to app for vectors or video. 

When you want all the bells & whistles available to vector graphics apps, it's best to use the right tool for the job -- Illustrator, After Effects, Animate, etc...  You'll get much better results.

I had to jump in on this one. Photoshop and Fater Effect both have shape layers and type tools that are not raster based. Photoshop also uses smart objects which can be linked to illustrator so why limit Photoshop? If you can make any shape that isn't just horizontal or vertical you'd benefit from angular and even circular guides in Photoshop. 

"Angled guides will not help you with pixel-based images."

Sorry, but I totally disagree on that statement. Angled guides can be extremely useful when digital painting in Photoshop. At present you can work around it with a separate layer and transformed vector lines, but the real answer is to be able to use angled guides.

"I'd like to Rotate the Guides."

Me too! It would be helpful when drawing in perspective to have guides (instead of lines) going off to the vanishing point. I've clicked the Upvote button at the top.

Photoshop is first & foremost a pixel-based image editor. Angled guides will not help you with pixel-based images. 

Illustrator and After Effects support math-based vector graphics.  Different tools for different file types.

I'd like to Rotate the Guides. I need it in AE now, but let it be in PS as well 🙂

Olá, gostaria de saber se existe alguma forma de trabalhar com guias além do do eixo horizontal e vertical.
Gostaria de poder posicionar linhas guias em outros angulos.

Hello,

I'd like to request a feature to be added to Photoshop. In Illustrator you can rotate guides and create new guides from shapes but you can't do this in Photoshop for some reason. Can this feature be added to Photoshop as well please?

Thank you,

Yes, why has this not been a feature yet

YES! Please!

Or allow snapping to shapes or paths, that would actually be even better. This would be easier for a company that has expertise in vector graphics.

Oh wait...
