Multiple Guide Sets for Photoshop CS5 or better.

[Paul MR]

I was asked on the Adobe forum if it was possible to have multiple Guide Sets, and I came up with this script.
This script will only work in Photoshop CS5 or better!
This script will allow you save multiple guide sets.
You can add or remove quide sets.
Guide sets can be appended to existing guides or existing guides can be removed before placing the new set.
The guide set info is held in the documents metadata, so the guide sets travel with the document.

To install the script download the zip file, unzip and you will have GuideSets.jsx
This needs to be placed into Photoshops application folders presets/scripts folder
once this has been done, if Photoshop was open, restart Photoshop so that it can pick the new script.

Is there a way to move the sets between machines? Working on 10.7, and the script is great for what i need, but wondering if it was doable to move the saved sets between my laptop and workstation for working on the road.

The guide set information is kept within each document metadata, so all you need to do is copy the file to your other machine.

Here is another option.

Here are two scripts:-
Layer Guides Set.jsx
This puts the guide information into the current layer.

Layer Guides Display.jsx
This retrieves and displays the guides (removing existing guides if any)
