1. Re: Grouped Guides / Guides Sets
markerline Jan 20, 2011 5:48 PM (in response to PeaceFingers)You can simulate your feature request by making a pixel-selection either vertical or horizontal and applying
a stroke and using that as a single layer to act as a guide. And this allows you the option of choosing a color for the guide. You can then choose to snap to pixels (I think) and it will snap to the pixels in your simulated guide. You can then rotate the simulated guide for angled appeal.
If you draw a path object you could do the same thing--apply a stroke to the selection of the path object (Path>Make Selection) and you would have a curved guide.
Would these suggestions benefit you over using a built-in feature of Photoshop?

2. Re: Grouped Guides / Guides Sets

Unfortuanely i cannot say your suggestions would be beneficial over a built-in feature of Photoshop.
The cool part about guides is that they do not actually ocupy a physical space on the document. They are not, for instance, located on "this pixel" or "that pixel", but they mark the location between pixels. Personaly, snapping to this Location is ideal for making layouts exact (snap to guides).
Extending the functionality of Photoshop guides, that seems like a nice feature.
