: Illustrator: Is it possible to move Guidelines while rearranging artboards? as the title says I would like to know if its possible in Illustrator to make the guidlines move with the commmand

@Welton168

Not the most elegant solution, but...


Unlock Guides (View > Guides > Uncheck "Lock Guides")
Select a guide AND another object that is on the artboard you want the guide to stay with
Group the guide and object together (Ctrl + G, or Cmd + G on a Mac)


The guide will move with that artboard when you rearrange. This works in Illustrator CC 2015.

No, theres no way you can move the guides with the Object → Artboards → Rearrange... What you see is what you get, perhaps in a newer version.

There are two workarounds. One is to release guides to geometry and then remake them into guides, the other is to make a script that does this. If no workaround is good enough for you then there is no solution. Its very hard to affect adobe so we can only give you workarounds.
