Smart Guide Line Extension not snapping

I recently updated to Illustrator 2025 and since doing so, when I go to extend a line by dragging an anchor, it is no longer snapping to the "Line Extension". I have verified that the correct preferences are checked under Preferences> Smart Guides> Anchor/ Path Labels.

Any help on this would be great thanks!

As far as I can see the issue has been fixed in the latest Illustrator version 29.0.1.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Anubhav,

Thank you for the help. I am using Illustrator Version 29.0. I'm not sure how to record my screen so I've attached a couple screen shots.

The "Anchor/ Path" smart guide works, as does extending a line that is 90 degrees horizontal or vertical. But when I try to extend an angled line, the Line Extension smart guide doesnt come up.
