Fontlab Guidelines appearing in all glyph windows

Hello!

A newbie question: How do I make guidelines appear in all glyph windows at the same time? Currently, when I add a guideline, that guideline is only visible to the current glyph I'm working on. I need to add certain guidelines to mark certain common points across all my glyphs, let's say the height of stress marks/accents and so on... I haven't figured yet how to do this )

Thanks a lot!

You can right-click on any guideline and click on "convert to global" in the context menu to turn it into a global guideline.

Excellent tip, thanks webfont!
