Clear Guides

If you add guides to your document, you’ll probably want to get rid of them too. This is easy in some apps, but in others, it’s a pain to do. GuideGuide makes it simple.

Clear all guides

Clearing all guides is easy.

1. Make sure your document has some guides in it.

   

2. With nothing selected, click the Clear Guides button.

   

That’s it, all your guides are gone. Keep in mind, GuideGuide is context dependent. If you’re on a specific artboard or page, GuideGuide will only clear the guides that are associated with it.

Clear specific guides

Some of the apps GuideGuide supports make it easy to clear multiple selected guides. If you’re using one that does, great, use the built-in method.

But if you’re using one of the apps that can only remove one guide or all guides, this tip is for you.

1. Make sure your document has some guides in it.

   

2. Create a marquee selection or create and select an object that overlaps the guides you would like to remove.

   

3. Click the Clear Guides button.

   

Any guide that overlapped the selection has been removed.
