Allow the separation of dimensions for the Scale transform control. Just like Position does currently.

Hopefully, this gets implemented for Transform > Scale.

In the meantime, Effect > Distort > Transform, then uncheck "Uniform Scale" to activate Scale Height and Scale Width.

I agree that we should have a "Separate Dimensions" on pretty much every array! This has been requested a few time over the years, but I've never heard any response from Adobe.

This would be very useful to have built-into AE.

For anyone looking for this moving forward, what I ended up doing and it worked great was to just create two sliders controllers on the layer that I wanted to separate dimensions on. Named them xScale, and yScale. Then quickly threw in an expression in the scale control

x = effect("xScale")("Slider");
y = effect("yScale")("Slider");

[x,y]

I separate the X and Y position on layers A LOT, and I often need to do it for the scale of a layer and it's a huge PITA that I can't just right click and separate the dimensions for scale like I can for position

please add this--thanks

I've managed to get everyone a workaround script while we're waiting for this feature to be added:

I'd recommend that ANY multidimensional property could be separated - not just scale - such as position-like properties found in effects like CC Bend It or Beam.
