    Is there an easier way to get the angle option to appear on the guideline?

      When I am using the guidelines, I love being able to alter the angle I set it at, but often it's hard to find the exact spot where the cursor switches to the angle option - it's usually far out from the main artboard. Here is a video showing what I mean. It was actually easier to find the spot this time than before I recorded. So if I'm zoomed in and add a guide, in order to change the angle, I have to zoom out far and alter it. it's also harder to get the exact angle I need from that far out, but if I zoom back in, I lose that ability. Is this something that could be available relative to the zoom level?

        @Boldline There is no such option. But it is possible to set the exact angle of the selected guideline using the Transform panel.

        I think the issue here (as seen in the recording) is the center of rotation when rotating a guideline.
        Currently, this should be automatically at the opposite side of the view.
        So far I could not replicate the same rotation issue as in the recording.

          @VectorStyler I zoomed in further on a new project and i was able to grab the angle better this time as you mentioned - I'm not sure why it was harder to do so before in the video. I'll keep a look out and get back to you

            Zooming in should not be necessary for rotating the guideline. If this occurs again, send me a file with an example.
