Question

Object guides or spacing

I am currently working on a project and my automated guide lines for object placement and spacing have disapeared. I am referring to the arrows (green) and lines (pink) for centering objects, text or images and for equally spacing them without using the alignment tool. Would someone happen to know how to reactivate this tool or setting as I have tried everything I can think and search for thus far.

I do not have the option 'Smart Guides' in the view panel.
