please make a Guide Presets feature!

[emhurley]

Heya, so for context, I'm a digital media major in my collage, I also love drawing using photoshop, so I want to formaly ask for a new feature to be added in photoshop. I know you can make custom guides in photoshop using the rulers, so I'd like to ask if we have have a form of guide presets, for example I'd like to be able to scroll over to guides, click on a bottun and I suddenly have a rule of 3's guide up and on my canvas, this will be handy for compositing/drawing backgrounds for my comics, or for aligning groups of characters in a sort of photographic sense. another preset that would be nice to have, is a golden ratio preset, this can be helpful for illustating flowers, and other things. It would also be nice to be able to have both an auto snap feature, for example if I have a blank canvis it'll automatically align itself to the whole canvis, and a Manual set feature, so I can manually get a rule of 3 guide or a golden ratio guide, in a small section of the canvas of my choosing.

If you wish for a feature request to be considered, it has to be posted in the following separate forum:

https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/categories/photoshop_family_photoshop

Which leaves one wondering why there is a feature request label in this forum if Adobe ignores it?

As this is a user to user forum, all I can do is offer alternative workarounds.

Creating a rule-of-thirds preset for the entire canvas or for a selection is easy enough with an action (a script could do more):

I'm more than happy to share the action... I'm in the process of adding a golden ratio grid.

Although the crop tool has rule of thirds and golden overlay options, you may need to place a golden ratio vector or raster object as a layer to use as a guide. This too could be recorded into an action for ease of use.

You can do a lot of that with View > New Guide Layout

And you can Add your own custom presets. Like Tic Tac Toe... And set the layout in Actioms.....
