Guide Lines in front by default?

Is there a way to set Guide Lines to be in front by default (if there's a setting for this I haven't found it). They are much less useful when they are in back, and it's a nuisance to have to bring them forward each time, especially when using more than one.

I'm using Visio 2003.

Hi Yossi,

I can't remember ever seeing such a setting. But there is an Edit > Select Special feature that lets you select by type. This would make it easier to select a bunch of guides at once, then bring them to front.

A small bit of VBA code could watch for guides being dropped and automatically bring them to front as well...

Does anyone know if this feature has been fixed in Visio 2010?

Does anyone have some VBA that can be used for 2007?

Many thanks,
Roy
