## Overview

This tool is similar to XGen's Check Guides Utility, but with the ability to select overlapping guides at once.

Sometimes after several ‘mirroring’ Xgen guides to the opposite side, duplicate/overlapping guides can happen. You can use this tool to check for this issue.

1. Select all the guides you want to check to for overlapping
2. Set a distance to check, usually the default 0.15 gives a very good result. You can increase or lower this number if needed.
3. Click on ‘Check’. Please note, this tool uses the ‘root’ of each guide and checks against other guide roots. If you have a large amount of guides selected, the check can slow down.
4. Once the check is completed, it will select the guides that fall within the distance (0.15) from other guides.
