Fixed guidelines when rotating image
#3

I'm using GIMP on Windows and was wondering if there was a way to keep the guidelines fixed during the image rotation stage.
I have noticed that when I rotate an image, the guidelines move with the image and do not stay fixed.
Does anyone know if there is a solution to this problem or if a request has been made to implement this feature?
I also tried to make a new layer with lines on a transparent background but the lines of the layer disappear while rotating the other layer.
I needed it to better rotate the image in order to make an object completely horizontal (or vertical).

I currently use Gimp 2.10.32 on Windows 10 64 bit.

Thanks in advance for the help.

It depends on the "directtion" of the Tool. Many transform tools have a "corrective" direction, in which you move the guides over the image, to show what should be straight/upright, and the image is straightened at the end. In direct mode, you move the image directly. 

Also, when you use these tools you can use the preview and the "composited preview" combines what you transforms with the existing image.
