When all four corners are clicked, the Vanishing grid appears with a blue color.
If it has a yellow color, Photoshop will still try to make the best use of it, but when it is in the red color, it is hopeless.
Click and drag a box in a corner, until the grid is displayed in the blue color.
Only when you have a good first grid drawn, you can proceed with the second wall.

To provide a grid to the floor, click and drag the block in the middle of the lower line, in the first grating.
Obviously you only need grid on the walls where you want to add a picture in perspective.
