Classes that implement ISnapGuides

Classes Description
SnapGuides Snapping Guides for use with a PageLayout.

Remarks

You can use guides in the page layout view to align elements on the page.

The PageLayout object has two SnapGuides objects, one for managing horizontal guides, and one for managing vertical guides. Use IPageLayout::VerticalSnapGuides or IPageLayout::HorizontalSnapguides to obtain a reference to the desired SnapGuides object.

Each SnapGuides object manages an internal collection of individual guides. Use ISnapGuides to add a new guide, remove a guide, and turn the visibility of the guides on or off.
