Hello, since the most recent few updates I've been having an issue where trying to update a shape's background image placement by double clicking the shape converts it into a path and I can no longer edit the image placement.
Here's what is happening:
- I create a shape, most of the time I work with rectangles.
- Sometimes I add stylings to the shape but not all of the time (e.g. border radius, shadow, etc.)
- I drag an image into the shape to create a mask of that shape with the image.
- I try to change the placement of the image (more the image to the left from within the shape, for example)
The way I used to be able to do it is by double clicking the image, then I could edit the placement.
When I double click the image now, the shape becomes a path (icon goes from square to a pen tool) and the anchors become available, but I am unable to change the placement of the image within the shape.
Is there a way to prevent this? Maybe a shortcut that will only allow me to change the placement? Or is this something that is a bug?
