Path lines disappearing when moving object after last update

I routinely paste artwork into an established layer in a template and then move the pasted obects to align to an intersection formed by a pair of guides.

 

Since the last update, when I paste these object and then proceed to move them, their path disappears while I have the path selected (click and drag).  I can't see the edges to line them up to the guides unless I go to Outline View.

 

Anyone else having this issue?

 

Mac Pro (Late 2013) running macOS Monterey 12.3.1

Illustrator 26.3.1

Correct answer KellyM @ Perma-Graphics

Smart Guide are on, and Edges are not marked as Hidden.  Didn't matter if the Bounding Box was on or not. You can see my regular Guides in blue on the GPU Preview.

 

I poked around some more and found that Illustrator -> Preferences -> Performance had Real Time Drawing and Editing checked.  Unchecking that gave me the path edges back while moving.

I just tried it. Is your smart guides on? I see my guide when I move it. Do not hide Edges...check this one as well.
