The first and often only guides, I create, are guides on the page border and guides that are within a 5 mm frame from the border. Now this makes me think if it wouldn't make sense to have a "snap to page border" in the documents prefs (page tab) as well as a "snap to margin" and then be able to define a top, left, right, bottom margin of the page. Should I file an RFE?
I am sure it would be useful to have.
I wonder if snap to grid could be improved to avoid needing a seperate preference? (What do Illustrator Freehand or other applictions do?)
I notice that the grid already lines up with the vertical edges of my page but not the top edge, perhaps the grid positioning could be tweaked so that it lines up with the top and left edges more easily?
Not really because the grid is not _supposed_ to do that, since you specify the distance between the gridlines and maybe an orgin. I think a seperate option is actually quite needed and it's what I know from InDesign after all.
