Unable to transform proportionally in InDesign 2020 on macOS Catalina 10.15

Just updated my MAC to Catalina 10.15 and then updated my InDesign to 2020.

Now I cannot proportionally transform images/objects within a frame. Holding shift does not work (nor does NOT holding shift.)

If you want to resize an object and its frame, you want to select the Cmd+Shift keys to size them proportionately. Additionally, you may find it easier to place your cursor at one of the corner anchor points of the frame, hold down the Cmd+Shift keys first then hold down the mouse button and drag to size the frame and enclosed graphic proportionately.

 

Holding down just the Shift key and dragging will size only the frame proportionately, not the contents.

 

Hope this helps,

I am having the same issue. I cannot proportionally scale my images in InDesign 2022 using Command+Shift. I have no other app open but Safari. OS 10.15.7. My inDesign is updated to latest version. Please help, I cannot work this way.

it really works if you "slow down" ... press down the keys one by one (keeping them all down) and then scale. i thought it was my new keyboard that was unresponsive but my old one does the same. but it really works if you go slow. i don't know why. first command, then option, then shift, then drag the corner (in illustrator you have to "grab" the corner first and then press the keys)
