    Delete guides doesn't work even I have several ones in use.

    How to delete them?

    It seems you have locked all guides. Check the lock icon at the top left corner of the desk.

    Yes, the guides were locked.Β 

    But it's not really intuitive, because the lock doesn't change, it still looks locked after I clicked on it and at the bottom there was a message that all guides were unlocked.

    But the "delete all guides" was still unavailable I had to delete all guides manually one by one.

    Thanks for the reply, I learned something new and useful.

    The "x" over the guides is the indicator of the guides being locked. And yes it should be an open and closed lock icon instead of white/grey background- agreed.
