While using cadence layout I hit some unknown hotkey and enabled some form of active DRC. It would show DRC rules with arrows while drawing. It was marvelous, but I had to close that session.

I could not locate the option in any menu and am not getting anywhere with google. Any help on what this feature is actually called and how to turn it on again would be appreciated.
 

Select Tools -> Layout Turbo or Layout XL, then Options -> DRD Edit
Try the options there until you get it working the way you want.

Thank you so much for the help. Now I can show everyone in my lab that I wasn't hallucinating :)
