The New Guide command adds a guide to the image.

	Tip
	You can add guides to the image more quickly, but less accurately, by simply clicking and dragging guides from the image rulers and positioning them where you would like.

6.23.1. Activate the Command

You can access this command from the image menubar through Image → Guides → New Guide

6.23.2. “New Guide” Options

When you select New Guide, a dialog opens, which allows you to set the Direction and Position, in pixels, of the new guide more precisely than by using click-and-drag.
