Wall tool not showing the guiding line, or recognizing corners.

Hi,

When I am trying to draw a wall, the wall tool will not automatically show the blue guide line or recongnize corners or x/y-axis, so it is very difficult to draw walls straight or parallel to an existing wall. 

How can I get the guiding lines back?

Thank you!

Check that you have Snap Guides turned on.
