      Illustrator has a keyboard shortcut (command-5) that converts any highlighted stroke into a an official guideline.
      It comes in handy at times and might be a nice addition to Vectorstyler

        @Boldline The View->Guides->Make Guides should do the same for any shape in VS.
        Such a guide can be released with View->Guides->Release Guides
        These guides will use collision style snapping (when Snap to Guideline is enabled), without the need to enable Collision snapping.

          @vectoradmin Awesome! thanks for sharing. Nice that it's already in VS and that it can be reverted back to it's original state if desired. the snap to guideline tip will come in handy.
