Does NX have a way to display layout guides in addition to the grid on a drawing sheet?

I think I already know the answer, but I had to check. I'm looking for a way to place guides on the drawing page. There are times when I need to edit the boundary of a drawing view and having guides to place would help to be more precise. If any of you are familiar with Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop, I was looking for guides like those. Basically, you can drag a guide out from the rulers at the top and left side of the screen and place it anywhere on the sheet.

you can add a background grid, it doesnt show up when printing or plotting.

Thanks. I knew about the grid, but was hoping to be able to use guides in addition to the grid.
