Pentagon appears upside-down.

Hello.

I am using Animate CC on an iMac 10.12.4. I find that if I create a pentagon with the Polystar tool, when I constrain the shape using the shift key, it always snap to a position with the point of the pentagon at the bottom, whereas I am expecting the normal position to be with the point at the top. Does anyone have any ideas about this?

    When you hold the shift key while using the polystar tool the point will be in the direction that you drag. In other words, to get the point at the top, drag up. To get the point to the right, drag right.
