Hello friends, in illustrator cc 2017, when I use the "Free Distort" tool there is a box and I can edit the anchor position to distort the shape I selected, but after editing a single anchor, the box is reset. (The box looks like a square again instead of a trapezoid)
At the same time when I use "Effect> Distort and Transform > Free Distort" in the dialog box I have a box too, but there I can edit one anchor and go the another without resetting the box.
Is there a way to I can edit multiple anchors when using the free deflection tool without resetting the entire box after each edit? (something like the free distort effect which occurs in the corresponding dialog)
Thanks in advance
To get this in the Free Distort tool, you will need to update your version of Illustrator.

I recommend Trying "Free Distrot Tool" instead, shortcut E

Hi. As @Mohammad.Harb said, try the Free Distort Tool: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/scaling-shearing-distorting-objects.html

Specifically, the Free Transform tool was updated to work this way in version 24.1 (2020).
