To remove all guides at once, right click and you will find Guides > Clear guides. You need to make sure nothing is selected, because right click will then bring up the menu related to that context. You should be on a clear background before right clicking. By the way this tutorial is really good. I liked the way you explained the principles and then supported with a lot of good examples. For the ones that needed improvement, you also mentioned what was wrong and how to fix them. Appreciate your efforts.

Hi Ronny! Thanks a lot for the tipps! I found a way, to remove all guides at once. You make the view smaller, then mark all elements on the sheet. Right click and choose "Delete al guides". Et voila. Gone! 😀

@@TeamRonDi one thing is odd: it does not work on every spot with the right click. Sometimes, it does not show "Delete all guids", but then, when I right-click on the background for example it shows the option. Hmm...🤔

Can someone please help me. Lets say I have uploaded a blue t shirt and a red t shirt. I want to add an image of a dog on the front of both. Easy to do. My problem is if I want to put these two t shirts on a website to sell, I need the placement of the dog image to be in the exact same place on both images for a cohesive look. How do I do this? Sorry for the long explanation.

Hey Barbara, the best way would be to make your photo montages, export them as 1 flat image and re-upload them into Canva to use on your website.

You can move elements backward and forward by selecting them and using the "Position" button.
