Libreoffice draw "helplines while moving" "disappear" after a second

I;m using LibreOffice Draw 7.0.4.2 on Debian Linux Bullseye and create a shape. After setting the size, I want to move it into position where it is to be. I click on it with left mouse button and the helplines show up then before I can do anything while the button is pressed, the helplines disappear. A little arrow pointing at my mouse pointer which has changed to fingers and what looks like a sheet of paper show up. So when I move the object, it is impossible to position correctly without the helplines. Helplines is checked in the Tools–>Options–>LibreOffice–>View menu.

What am I doing wrong?

Edit: If I copy an object and move it, the helplines stay. If I then move it again or grab another shape to move, they disappear.

You might have gestures (or similarly named effect) turned on in your pointing device.

same here, helplines change to sheet of paper. LibreOffice Linux 24.8.0.3(X86_64)
