It appears that the latest Adobe update (Photoshop CC 2019) has rendered the Shift + Drag to constrain proportions in Free Transform mode completely useless. Usually when something like this happens on a software update there's a quick setting or fix but I have yet to find anything that remedies the situation. As of now, a manual clicking of the proportion lock in the tool bar is the only way to constrain proportions in Free Transform mode, but after more than a decade of using Shift + Drag, it's really cumbersome to have to take this extra step and it's disrupting the workflow that's been ingrained in my head since I started using Ps.



Has anyone found a way to enable Shift + Drag to constrain proportions in the latest Photoshop CC 2019?

          To revert to the legacy transform behavior, do the following:



          Use Notepad (Windows) or a text editor on Mac OS to create a plain
          text file (.txt). Type the text below in the text file:



          TransformProportionalScale 0



          Save the file as PSUserConfig.txt to your Photoshop settings folder:



          Windows: [Installation Drive]:Users[User
          Name]AppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CC 2019Adobe Photoshop CC
          2019 Settings

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar.
