HOW DO I MAKE MY OBJECT SKEW IN A STARIGHT LINE?

when i skew an object I want it to go in a straight line like B but then it goes like A. I think it's to keep the size consistent but i don't want that. I already tried putting a keyframe in the middle and streching it down but it makes it worse. Is there a way to turn it off or is there nothing I can do?

    ok i figured it out! you gotta make it a motion tween and refine it. in the middle of the 2 keyframes go to scale and add a point in the middle and drag it down

      You'll have to do it manually, frame by frame, it seems.

      You can skew an object as in your B example by doing the following:

      1. Select the Free Transform Tool (Q)
      2. Select the object
      3. Drag the transformation point to the bottom, center
      4. Skew
