The Need for Visible Reference Axes in SketchUp
-
A command I really miss in SketchUp is this: the ability to know at any moment what the reference axes are. I often find myself moving and modifying objects but not understanding where they are in space, whether the axes are global or object-specific. In practice, other programs like Blender and others always have the axes visible on screen. I don't know if there's a plugin for this issue, but for me and my particular workflow, it's really a necessity.

Could you have turned it off by mistake
To turn off the axes in SketchUp, go to the "View" menu, then select "Axes" and uncheck the box next to it; you can also right-click on an open area on the axis itself and choose "Hide" from the context menu.

You could enable Display Crosshairs

@alexpacio2013 Roberto, I fear that you messed up with the sketchup style window or maybe with Fredo's Mr hide and you just hide axes visibility by mistake. Try to doublecheck that.
