      Hi
      I was trying to make some guide shapes for use in future projects and I was wondering, is there a specific place to save guide shapes?

      I am aware of the save option in the Guideline Panel menu (Save to preset) but that appears to only work for lines generated by the guideline feature.

      Options to work around this (if it is missing) are saving said guide shape as a preset in the shape panel, but when fetching, the shape looses the "Guide Shape" attribute. Another option is to save a .vstyler template and just load it when needed.

      So, I ask this, in case I was missing something.
      Thank you.

        @Victor-Vector I think one option here is to save it as a "symbol preset" in the Presets panel (+) icon Create Synbol.
        In this way it will be accessible from other documents.
        But it must be added to a document when used.

          @vectoradmin Ah, okay. Yes, I had not considered that option.
          Thanks for enlightening me ☺
