What is happening to Smart Guides?

It has become almost impossible to snap objects to a guide using smart guides without scaling it. I have objects that are already at the correct size and I just need them to snap so I can align everything properly.

 

It's not working and it's so essential that this is seriously hindering my work.And yes, I do have them turned on - they happily snap to virtually everything except the guides despite only enabling Smart Guides and Snap to Point.

 

What is happening? Is this a bug in the newer versions?

Hello @Patrick22096617v9m9,

Thanks for reaching out. I tried replicating this behavior on my end but could not. Would you mind confirming the version of the OS/Illustrator and a small screen recording showcasing your exact workflow, the snap settings used, and the problem so I can check it with the team?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
