HOW TO ››

And that’s it! You now know how to take advantage of

the New Guide Layout option and easily create, amend, and

save custom guide layouts in Photoshop CC. Check out next

issue’s tutorial for another design tip for Photoshop users. n

Your layout is now saved as a new preset, so when you

need to use it again, you’ll be able to select it quickly from

the Preset list. (I saved mine into my Creative Cloud storage

so I always have access to it.)

Now that you’ve created the new customized guide

layout you need, just click OK to exit the New Guide Lay-

out dialog.

WANT TO HIDE OR CLEAR THE GUIDES?

To temporarily hide your guide layout from view, go up

to the View menu, select Show, and then choose Guides.

Repeat to reactivate them. Or use this handy shortcut:

Command-; (PC: Ctrl-;) on your keyboard to toggle them

on and off.

If you wish to clear the guides completely and start

with a brand-new set of guides using the same methods as

above, just go up to the View menu again and choose Clear

Guides. Remember, your document can be any size, but

always give some consideration to your layout depending

on what the end result will be.
