Is there a way to hide ONLY the column guides in inDesign, leaving the ruler guides and margins visible?

    Are you still intending to use columns but have them invisible? If not, why not just make a 0 column layout? – AndrewH Aug 21 '19 at 18:35

I don't think you can toggle the visibility of margins and columns separately. Either both are on, or both of them are off.

One workaround is to manually add the column lines by drawing the lines on a Master Page on a new layer. When you go back to your pages, you can then toggle the visibility of that column layer.

Every page with this Master Page applied will get the column guides.
