    It seems like several problems got mixed in the comments.


    1. Guides made of single anchors (displayed as <Guide> in Layers) are displayed correctly in the latest versions of Ai when View > Guides > Show Guides is enabled (although they are rather small).


    2. Illustrator does not draw centerpoints for ellipses while moving then in GPU mode — a know problem, reported separately here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/39740689

    Please upvote it if you want to see edges while moving.


    3. Show Edges option gets occasionally disabled — gets fixed with Cmd/Ctrl + H. Edges still won’t be drawn when GPU Performance and Real-Time Drawing and Editing options are enabled in Preferences > Performance, only when you switch to CPU mode.


    If your case is nothing like this — please comment and share details on the problem, with steps and screenshots or videos.

    SOLUTION:

    (1) Go to another Workspace. Top, right-hand corner dropdown. I went from Essentials to Printing and Proofing to get this to work.

    (2) Choose Direct Selection Tool (white arrow, top of left-hand main menu).

    (3) Use Cmd + H to enable (Mac) // Ctrl + H (Windows).

    Best of luck!
