The problem is: in the graphics builder the guidelines can be clicked or dragged using the mouse, and then they change!
Whilst dragging is quite a conscious action, clicking something is easily done accidentally.
You are not warned that you clicked and changed a guideline, so you won’t be aware until this shows up much later in the project.
We suggest a 'lock guidelines' opiton to disable clicking/dragging of the guidelines, so that they can only be changed from the options dialog.

Idea business value
We carefully define and agree on the position of guidelines between a project team, so that everyone lines up their pages equally and the result looks neat and tidy. |
