How to set guides at exact positions / coordinates in Photoshop?


Question

I am very new to Photoshop. I have created a 300px by 230px image. I'm trying to place 5 vertical guidelines at 0px, 57.5px, 115px, 172.5px, 230px.

I've placed the whole numbers manually by pulling vertical guidelines with the ruler, but I cannot put 57.5px, 172.5px to exact positions this way.

How can I set a guideline at an exact position in Photoshop?

Accepted Answer

Other then dragging guides down from a ruler, you can go to the "New Guide" function in Photoshop. I'm using CS 6, just so you know.

This is where you can find the function

This is where you can find the function. Click it, and a box will appear.

From there, just put in where you need the guide and what direction you want it in, click "Ok" and you should be good to go!
