* Guides: a dragged guide shows where it is (#1282)
While a guide is dragged out of a ruler or moved, a label beside the
pointer reads X: or Y: and the guide's place, in the ruler units and
measured the way the rulers measure (from the zero point, and from the
page origin when rulers restart per page).
* Guides: keep the drag readout inside the canvas
Near the canvas's right or bottom edge the readout flips to the other
side of the pointer, and it is kept inside the canvas in every case
(readout_at).
* Guides: the drag readout measures the spread under the pointer
The readout measured from the spread in the middle of the view (where the
rulers measure), but a guide is dropped on the spread under the pointer,
so with spreads above one another the number shown could differ from the
guide's place. It now measures that spread (ruler_pieces_of).
* Guides: no readout for an existing guide over another spread
An existing guide moves only on its own spread (guide_drag), so dropped
over another it stays where it was: the readout no longer shows a place
there it won't go.
* #1282: guide selection commands (guide.select, guide.selectAll, guide.deselect, guide.moveBy)
* #1282: select ruler guides on the canvas, X/Y in the Control bar and Properties
* #1282: guides take clicks over objects, a new guide is selected, group drag preview
* ROADMAP: the progress line lands in one commit after the guide PRs

Chris Cicchino's "Adobe InDesign – Page Tool and Liquid Layout" (0:42–
2:06) selects a page with the Page tool, gets its bounding box with
handles, drags a handle (the page springs back: a liquid-rule preview),
holds Option to really resize it, Shift for proportions, and reads the
size in a tooltip by the cursor. DesignCraft's Page tool only opened a
generic Page Size dialog on click.
- tools: the Page tool selects the page under a click (none on the
pasteboard); the selected page shows its outline, eight handles and
its liquid page rule ("Scale", "Object-Based"…) above it. Dragging a
handle previews layout.pageSize (the liquid rule re-flows the
objects) and springs back on release; Alt resizes, Shift keeps the
proportions; a W/H readout follows the pointer; resize cursors on the
handles. Double-click a page for the Page Size dialog.
- doc: Selection.page (the Page tool's page); engine: layout.selectPage
(no undo step).
- layout.pageSize `anchor` (0-8): the page grows away from the
reference point and its objects and guides keep their place relative
to it (a handle drag anchors the opposite edge); liquid rules work
from that.
- canvas: PageHandles and Tag overlays; translations for the tags and
the Resize Page undo label.

- doc: FOOTNOTE_REF marker + Story::notes (kept in sync on insert/delete/thread), FootnoteOptions,
NumberStyle::Symbols, footnote text addressed like cell text (CellAddr::footnote)
- compose: notes numbered (continuous / restart per page, spread, section), composed at column
width, body text makes room, stacked at the column bottom with the rule above
- render + PDF draw footnote text; IDML export/import in InDesign's structure (verified in
InDesign 2026), FootnoteOption preferences
- engine: footnote.insert/options/list/setText/delete/goToReference (+ tests)
- UI: caret/selection in footnote text, Footnote Options dialog, Type menu entries; menu items
labelled '…' with parameters open a dialog generated from the command's params doc
- sample magazine carries a footnote
