P: Transform/Resize is constrained by default - Want ability to go back to legacy behavior

uninstalled cc2019, went back to cc2018. waiting for updates:(

If you mean that blank starting with 'Kind' and ending with 'Artboard' it works for me.

Great advice, except text layers behave differently now to smart objects, or rasterised layers. Also, for some reason the layer labels for smart objects and shapes no longer work, so you can't scan through a document to see what is what! 0/10 rolling back to previous version.

Text in Photoshop is a joke in the first place.

Deon Harris presented 2 problems, where the second was about Transformation so why that has been decided to merge his topic to this one. What about first problem he mentioned that is not related to this theard? Shouldn't you leave his topic untouched?

The text tool opens text box with text aligned to the left. Now I have to waste time changing it all the time. And it defaults to a size I don't use and more time is wasted correcting that.

When using the transform tool it will free transform. but now it keeps proportion, In the past one had to keep the shift key down for maintaining proportion, now it free transforms when holding the shift key down. Please dont change the way these tools function.

The fact that so many users have had to trawl through forums to find out how to use a tool thats worked perfectly well in one way for years, is ridiculous. 

And would it be possible to stop advertising new features and displaying new file windows we've previously turned off? This is professional suite of applications used to create advertising, it's not an advertising opportunity - see attached.
Also, the uninvited Apple-style upgrade dialogue is 'pulling-teeth' painful in OSX/iOS, don't make it the new norm.

It’s very tempting to get by on an old paid for in full version and cancel my subscription. I already shut down the 2019 version and went back to 2018. The problem is, if Adobe refuses to give us back our old options we are stuck with this crap from here on out, and I for one am not going to upgrade just because there is no other choice for newer versions. It’s not just new tool behavior for me though. I found far too many bugs in the 2019 version and it’s just not worth the headache

Well, another disappointing response from Adobe. IMHO you are absolute morons for changing something that been one way for EVER. Clearly you don't have any understanding of how your users work and need to work. We've got work to do and we expect our tools to continue working the way they always have — or you better have one hell of a good reason for changing something. And that's one of the problems with Adobe: you make changes but why are you making the changes? What is the compelling reason? I hope you finally do something so stupid that it causes a huge financial impact to the company because you need a darn good whopping.
