196 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide
Using guides
Guides are nonprinting lines that appear over the image in the document window. They
are very helpful in aligning image elements. You can place guides at any position in the
document window and easily reposition and remove them. If you enable the Snap to
Ruler Ticks option, the guides you create will land precisely on the tick marks. Each
guide also has options that let you change its color and lock it so that it can’t be
dragged.
To show or hide guides
• Choose Canvas Guides Show Guides or Hide Guides.
To create a guide
1 Show the rulers and the guides.
2 Click in a ruler at the position where you want to place the guide.
A guide appears in the document window and a triangular marker appears in the
ruler.
A black triangle marks the guide’s position in the ruler.
To reposition a guide
• Drag the guide’s marker to any point of the ruler.
You can also double-click the guide’s marker to display the Guide Options
dialog box, and enter a value in the Guide Position box.
