Good day, Daniel.

Great news - guides are already a working part of Sodipodi! 

To begin using them, just left-click on one or both of the rulers at the top 
and left-hand side of an document and then, while holding down the left mouse 
button, pull out toward the document window. A guide that was once hidden will 
appear. (You can pull out a virtually infinite number of guides this way.) You 
can then toggle whether or not you want objects to snap to these guides and if 
that were not convenient enough, you can also change both its default color and 
its highlight color.

To reveal the guide menu, as you already know Daniel:

1) Right-click within the document window;
2) "Dialogs" >> "Editing Window" >> "Guides".

Note: To remove a guide, highlight it with the select tool and then pull/push 
it back to the appropriate ruler.

Enjoy Sodipodi...

(Thanks Lauris!)
