Before PS v21 update size of paragraph box was changing correctly in properties panel, now it started distorting text inside.


+ suggestion to add functionality to select multiple paragraph boxes and change sizes at once not one by one.

Hello, in version v20 this option worked correctly (changed size just of box not text inside) in my opinion. Why any one would want to transform paragraph by distorting text? I think if i want to do transformation i would use ctrl+T (than do what ever you want) or do this from character panel. But in this case this is a bug not a feature. But i am talking only about paragraph box, not simple text.

Howdy Tomas,

The functionality is now different depending upon what state you're in.  If you're actually editing the text so that it's in a modal state, changes affect the bounding box.  Otherwise, changes transform the layer.

Make sense?  Or do you still find that behavior problematic?

Thanks,
David
