Problems starting a sketch/drawing

https://i63.servimg.com/u/f63/20/27/38/97/librec10.jpg
I cannot draw a line. I pick the line tool, pick my points and all I get is a horizontal line on the Origin line. Enabling the Grid is no help. When I watch a tutorial, I don't get the cursor that will draw a line at any angle. Only horizontal on the origin line. If I try to draw a 2 point circle, it will only draw the circle with its center on the horizontal origin line. Can someone please help?

Welcome mlydon!

Sadly the Snap toolbar is not visible, it is collapsed on the right bottom border.
I suspect, that Restrict horizontal is activated.
Find it in the menu or the Snap toolbar to deactivate it.
