Hello everyone,

I would like to know if it is possible, in Inkscape, to organize guides into layers. The idea is to be able to display a group of guides depending on the stages of construction of my drawing.

I had this feature in another software and I miss it.

Or maybe there is a plugin that could do this.

Thank you.

No, Inkscape's guides apply across all layers. Here's a workaround I occasionally use. Draw straight lines representing the guides you want to use. Group related lines together. Move the groups to a "Guide" layer and hide the layer. When you need them, unhide the layer, select a group, duplicate it [ctrl+d], and convert to guides [shift+g]. Hide the "Guides" layer again. When you're finished, [Edit > Delete All Guides].

Thank you @Paddy_CAD. Sometimes humans can be stupid; they don't see the simplest solutions and grumble in their corner, cursing their tools.

Thank you for the solution.

Best regards,
