The mask in the effects control panel should allow you to create a perfect square mask.

Dragging a shape using the Shift key will create a perfect circle in Photoshop and Illustrator.

Premiere Pro users are frustrated because they can't do this when creating masks with effects or opacity.

エフェクトコントロールパネルのマスクで完全な正方形のマスクを作成できるようにすべきだ！

Shiftキーを使用して図形をドラッグすると、PhotoshopとIllustratorで完全な円を作成できます。

Premiere Proユーザーは、エフェクトや不透明度でマスクを作成する時、これを行うことができないため、不満を感じています。

I've left this same suggestion as well. It is inconceivable that anyone would design a mask this way. Talk to the Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects teams at your company. Go into any of these programs and draw a box. Then make it work that way in Premiere. Please.

Man. I have to agree with Zena Grey here. This is so strange for such a professional application to lack such a basic tool. If you can't fix it, can you at least explain to us here, in this thread, why this doesn't exist?

ADOBE-- LISTEN TO THIS HUMAN!!! A square mask should be LITERALLY THE EASIEST THING TO MAKE. We should not have to be eyeballing shapes that should be perfectly easy to create and complaining about this for YEARS. It is absolutely bonkers that I have been looking through almost a decade of message boards asking for how to create a perfect circle mask in Premiere and NO ONE HAS AN ANSWER. FIX THIS!!!

Great suggestion. I would like to add that the devs should disable movement upon first touching the vector point in a mask or shape.

Every single time I try to select a vector point, it moves that point unless I keep my mouse completely still. This is very annoying. It's been years of me selecting each point like I'm performing surgery.
