Is there a way to have multiple color guides?

[cbishop01]

What we were wanting to do is just as an example.  Have say a red guide for one piece of art and a blue for another and so on.  And be able to have them on the same sheet.

Why not?

Guides have a guideColor property where the value could be a UIColor or an array of three RGB numbers.

var doc = app.documents[0];
app.documents[0].spreads[0].guides.add
(
    {
        guideColor : [255,0,0] ,
        guideType : GuideTypeOptions.RULER ,
        location : "10 mm" ,
        orientation : HorizontalOrVertical.VERTICAL ,
        fitToPage : true ,
        itemLayer : doc.layers[0]
    }
);
