<pre>Description:
Tried to resize a shape, eg rectangle, by dragging a middle control point but
it behaves as if it were a corner control point in that it maintains the aspect
ratio.
I tried the same thing in the OpenOffice version of draw and it works as one
would expect. (I would use OpenOffice except I have to work on files created by
Microsoft Visio).
Have noticed that holding down the shift key while dragging doesn't preserve
aspect ratio, which appears to be the exact opposite of what the documentation
says:
<a href="https://help.libreoffice.org/Draw/Shortcut_Keys_for_Drawings#Shortcut_Keys_Specific_to_Drawings">https://help.libreoffice.org/Draw/Shortcut_Keys_for_Drawings#Shortcut_Keys_Specific_to_Drawings</a>
Sounds, to me, like boolean is being misinterpreted.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new drawing and add, say, a filled rectangle. Select rectangle
a rectangle
2.drag an edge control point to try to make, say, wider/thinner or
shorter/taller (but not both)
3.Observe both horizontal and vertical scaling change.
4. Note holding down shift key does allow independent scaling, contrary to
documentation.
Actual Results:
see above.
Expected Results:
I expected only one of the dimensions to be altered.
Reproducible: Always
