--- Comment #8 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
The placement guides for single objects are available as UNO .uno:HelplinesMove
 "Helplines While Moving" 

But they only toggle active, when an object has been selected and is being
dragged with l-mouse click & hold.

If without actually starting to drag an object the help lines could be toggled
shown for a selected Draw object 

1.) to check its alignment, or 
2.) while moving object with <Shift>+<cursor L,R,U,D> (currently no guides with
this keyboard only movement).

The other facet is that the current help lines show the 'extents' of the
object--not the centroid of the object.  Sometimes for positioning working
against the center is better than the x,y extent.
