Is there a reason why a guide can’t be added to a selection by shift-clicking on it (in the same way that an additional node can be)?
What would be the most efficient way of selecting all of the contours in a glyph plus one of the guides?
It looks like one can shift-click on the circle of the guideline to add it to the selection.
Most efficient method, right now, would be:
- Command-A to select all the nodes. (Press Command-A a second time if you want to include all of the anchors.)
- Shift-click on the circle of the guideline.
Ah thanks, clicking the circle was what I was missing.
It’s counterintuitive that you can click anywhere on a guide to select it, but you have to click in the circle to add the selection.
The problem is that accidental selections and and rotations would happen to often.
I can see that. I mistakenly select and rotate guides all the time. Actually I wouldn’t mind requiring an option-click to select a guide from anywhere except its handle.
