Direction; Position

  When you select New Guide, a dialog opens, which allows you to set the Direction and Position, in pixels, of the new guide more precisely than by using click-and-drag. The Direction may be Horizontal or Vertical. The coordinate origin for the Position is the upper left corner of the image.
