Transform link not working properly

I just updated to 30.6 and transform is not working. Usually i can just click transform and when i need to adjust the H or W, unlink the chain, and adjust the size. Now when I unlink the chain it continues to constrain and adjusts both H and W. I restarted illustrator, opened a new file, put in a 2x2 square and then adjusted one of the measurements with the link unchained. It worked one time. but then when i went in to adjust it again to make sure it was working, it went right back to adjusting both H and W as if the link was chained. Any one else? is there a weird setting somewhere i dont know about?

Hello everyone,

The product team has fixed this in the Illustrator (beta) 30.8.0.7 release and intends to release it in the general version soon.

Meanwhile, please use the dedicated Transform panel or the Properties panel as a workaround.

Hi I am not clear if this is the correct chat issue that I am facing but I cannot get my Distort Effect transform to operate correctly. I apply conditions & even in preview mode they are not influencing the objects I have selected. I saw the reply that said it was fixed in Beta but I still cannot get this effec t functioning correctly. I use a Mac & am at latest iteration of Tahoe 26.6.2. Please help as this is really impacting my workflow.

Working fine on my end in both the Transform, Properties, and Control panels.

I’m using Windows 11. What platform are you on? If Mac, I can test it on that too.

You can have more than one version installed, if this is important for your workflow, I would install a previous Illustrator version until it is solved.
