General Scaling

[Darner]

Hi

Be great if Affinity was more consistent with scaling in proportions, and decide overall if shift should be used or not for maintaining proportions.
Can see that sometimes shift needs to be used to maintain proportions, and sometimes not, depending on type of graphics etc (like typeface vs rectangle).

You can change the default behaviour via the ‘Move Tool Aspect Constrain’ setting under Preferences.

You can control that via the application Preferences/Settings, Tools where you have a setting for how the Move Tool aspect constraints are applied. They can be automatic based on the kind of object, or always constrained (shift to unconstrain), or not constrained (shift to constrain).

Thank you Walt. Appreciated!
