Smart selection do not appear

The red guidelines for smart selection do not appear anymore on the canvas when I select multiple objects. Is there an update or a new version of Figma that addresses this issue?

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out. We don’t see any changes in Smart selection. To make a Smart selection, all layers must be an equal distance apart and overlap on either the x or y axis (1D), or both (2D). If layers aren’t an equal distance apart, you can use the Tidy up tool to rearrange layers and create a Smart selection.

Can you try above to see if it works? If not, could you provide a little bit more details with screenshots or recording please?

Thanks!
