Hi Rodrigo,

Here's another work around:

Holding down Shift, select some object other than the line under the guide, then while still holding down Shift, click the line.
Now, while still holding down Shift, click the first object to deselect it. You will then see that the line is still selected and can be operated upon, either in Properties or with the mouse (and this includes both moving the line and moving control points).
