Guides snapping not working, anyone else have this bug?
I created a special template that had some guides where I need them for projects.
Unfortunately, I've had a bug where snapping to guides no longer works. I'm not sure when or how it occurred.
Here's what I know:
My keyboard is a wireless one without a numberpad. The numberpad 2 key is the shortcut key for guides. (don't know if that could be a problem) but snap to guides is checked under the window menu.
When I create a new file, it's still a problem, so it's not just the file I created as a template, but it maybe started the same time. Could be related or not.

Check under Options > Mouse .......
Magnetic Snap Radii are probably set to 0.
Defaults are Point - 0.06in and Line - 0.04in

That would be it Keith.
I've noticed that the mag' snap radii get zeroed when you change page units. So I make it a habit to check the radii always now.

I would also suggest making sure snap to guides is turned on. If you look in the button pallet, there is a button you can throw on a toolbar for that. It makes it really easy to see if it is turned on or not...
I have that as part of my default template.

rock on, the problem was the mouse options. I changed them to your defaults and I'm set. I'll probably have to go back to several of my newly created templates to fix them, but that's ok. I'm glad I can.
thanks guys/gals!
