Does anyone know about a "enter a numeric value" feature for guides?  Or does anyone a run-around to adjust guides in absolute values. I don't trust my fingers or my mouse to that freehand. 

Thanks for any help,

Ross

GUides are just paths in the end. You can select them (if they are unlocked) and enter a position in the transform panel (or control or properties panel)

What exactly do you mean by "entering a numeric value"?

 

The number of horizontal / vertical guides on one or several artboards?

 

Moving existing guides to a specific position? Moving by a specific distance?

 

Or something else?
