Hi all,

How to reduce a rectangle to rounded corners without changing the angles on illustrator

You can see taht the form is changing by modifying the dimension.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Ben,

For my part you are welcome, Ben.

So it was the (full) ticking of the Scale option.

Ben,

As I (mis)understand it, you have a red(dish) shape that is a rectangle with rounded corners as an effect or as live corners, and a yellow partial shape that has been changed into a simple path by Object>Expand Appearance or something.

To have them behave in the same way, I believe you will need to either also expand the red(dish) shape or to tick the relevant scaling option (Scale Strokes & Effects or Corners) rather than unticking it.
