Hello, I am trying to create vertical and horizontal guides generated using the extension. The method below is used.

def create_guide(position, orientation, parent):
    """ Creates a Guide with a defined position, orientation
    and parent in the DOM.
    """
    etree.SubElement(
        parent,
        '{http://sodipodi.sourceforge.net/DTD/sodipodi-0.dtd}guide',
        {
            'position': position,
            'orientation': orientation,
        }
    )

The vertical lines are created from left to right and that is working. Now when I changed the orientation to horizontal as below
 

     # Create row guides
        row_pos = 0.0
        create_guide('0,'+str(row_pos), '0,1', nv)

The guide is placed to the bottom of the document with these co-ordinates `position: (0,0)` and `orientation: '0,1'`.
Can someone let me know how to draw horizontal guides by correctly positioning? 

Regards,

Hi,

I've had the same issue and found this line in someone's code:

y = -y + self.svg.get_page_bbox().height
