Wondering if there is a preference I can select to ensure the warp tool result matches the smooth red preview outline Illustrator generates (which I have seen on online tutorials) as mine creates sharp corners? Before and after files of a simple closed path rectangle attached.
Laura,
You have probably experienced a temporary corruption of a kind that can be healed by simply restarting the application/computer one or more times; there are more serious corruptions that require more.
Or, if you have started over in a new document and (only then) succeeded, you may have experienced a corruption of the original document, in which case you might have been able to copy the artwork to a new document and have it behave.
Both are known causes of wrong/strange behaviour.
None of us can delete posts, except for Adobe staff.
Recently, the More option of editing a post has been removed for newcomers owing to less nice folk joining the forums and posting bad things, and then bypassing moderation by editing the bad things back in; it will appear when you have used the forums some more.
Apart from that, your describing the issue and its vanishing again can be very helpful for others.

After scouring the web I was expecting something smooth and simple like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGD963pBV9M

Oddly, today the warp tool works smoothly and I can’t delete the original post — the “… More” button simply shows an empty lozenge — although keen to see what caused the original result, for future reference.
