When a shape (rectangle) is rotated 45 degrees, the transform on the bounding box behaves as if the shape hasn't been rotated.

Hi,
 A bit difficult since the screenshot in Windows doesn't capture the cursor.
Here I replicate what it looks like when I encounter the bug.

This is a shape I created with the shape tool, I press M in shortcut to create and rotate it 45 degrees.

 Pretend the black arrows is my cursor hovering on the right corner, now I press down and this happens. 
The shape "snapped" to the shape you see above, and behave weirdly when I drag my cursor to scale. As if it is not yet rotated.

 This is what will happen to the shape if I try to scale on the top corner.
It's not the issue of holding shift (scale in proportion) btw. It has nothing to do with it. 

Cheers,

I'm finding it hard to totally understand what you mean or maybe its because I can't replicate the issue you have? 🤔 🤔

Have you tried clearing your preferences and or uninstalling and reinstalling to try and resolve the issue..?
