Guides Manager 1.0

Six essential guide management scripts in one palette

Guides Manager is a floating palette for Adobe InDesign that provides six essential guide-management functions:

• Convert Guides to Lines — Transforms InDesign ruler guides into visible graphic lines.
• Convert Lines to Guides — Transforms horizontal and vertical graphic lines back into non-printing ruler guides.
• Delete Guides — Removes guides from your document in bulk, with control over scope and parent pages.
• Guide Preferences — Changes guide color and view threshold for existing guides or document preferences.
• Move Guides to Layer — Moves all document guides to a dedicated «Guides» layer at the top of the layer stack.
• Flip Guides — Copies and mirrors guides horizontally and/or vertically, on the same page or to the next page.

The palette stays open alongside your document, allowing quick repeated access to all functions without re-running the script. Every operation supports full undo (Edit > Undo) in a single step.
