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

Probably best to read the entire thread. There are solutions posted that work, or stick with CC2018. Not much really changed and certainly no "must have" new features. 

Hi guys, the "scale" tool is broken on the new version of PS. The height and width scale together, even when the link icon is unchecked. Please fix! : )

I think they're just avoiding the confrontation. <G> Should it be Cmd-D for deselect, or Cmd-Shift-A? Who gets to be top dog?

I say who cares who wins the shortcut argument— IF they'd just make sure that we had more options for creating keyboard shortcuts, AND they made sure darn virtually everything in each and every app was wired for custom kbsc. (Have you even seen how extremely limiting Illustrator is for creating kbsc? The rest don't earn any prizes, either, although AE and PP have gone a lot further towards making it easier to assign kbsc.) I'm including the holdouts like LR, Bridge, and CR—their kbsc are from another planet.

Yep.

I'm tired of the inconstancies as well. Where possible, every app in the suite should work the same way: transformations, managing links, creating/managing colours, creating/editing text, creating/managing layers, the list goes on. This was the promise of the original CS Suite (it was one of the key selling points) and while some things have improved, there are many jaw-dropping omissions. 
Either nobody at Adobe uses multiple apps on a daily basis, or people tasked with managing consistency across the apps have no real power.

Same here!!!

same here.

Title says it all. Is Photoshop a tool for professionals or for the average Joe who wants to crop a holiday picture? Please pick a side because these kind of decisions piss me off.

Cheers.

This is ridiculous. What are you doing Adobe? So now in some programs I hold shift, like I've done for 10 years, but in Photoshop it's no longer the default behavior? How does inconsistency between keyboard commands from one application to another equal an improvement. Shift to constrain should be the default. Was someone actually complaining about this? So now I have to train my hand and mind to hold shift in other applications but not Photoshop? Please give us an option to revert to legacy.

When resizing any kind of layer, the proportions are locked. When I click the lock icon to unlock it it doesn't work. It remains locked. I'm unable to resize layers freely. I've been using Photoshop for over 10 years and never had this issue before. It's been happening since the last update. I'm using Windows and I have the same issue on 2 different computers.

By the way, when creating vector shapes and changing the feather, Photoshop sometimes crashes. This one has been going on for years.
