Snapping with dynamic guides
For accurate object alignment and resizing, you can use dynamic guides instead
of setting ruler guides manually or performing selection, transform, and
alignment operations. These red-coloured guides are shown between the vertices
of the last three selected placed page objects and the manipulated object and
"visually suggest" possible snapping options such as snap to the placed object's
left, right, centre, top, right, bottom, or to the page centre. You can include
objects to snap to by dragging over objects.

To switch on dynamic guides:
• Click the down arrow on the Snapping button (Hintline) and
click Dynamic Guides on the drop-down menu.
