It’s easy to snap an object to a guide, right? But what about snapping a guide to an object in InDesign? I think it was Tim Cole who first pointed me to the trick: Select the object with the Selection tool, then drag the guide (still with the Selection tool) on top of a corner, side, or center point of the object. Guides snap right to them. (As long as Snap to Guides is turned on, of course.)
