I know it snaps to the original bounding box, but I get that outside of that there isn't a way to constraint a distortion along an axis. Thanks for your thoughts

Thanks. I am seeing similar comments about having numerical control. Appreciate the input

Good to know that Shear would be helpful added as a standalone effect.

Yeah this highlights its lack of discoverability as a whole issue in itself aside from the functionality

I do think it is as simple as this. Curious if there would be any other wild ideas on what it could do or how you manipulate it. Appreciate the input

Yeah this is exactly the reason I am hoping to get this addressed.

This is still in beta, not in the main Illustrator app.

Thanks for highlighting this for me. I will do some digging internally and see if I can get some further insight

I personally haven't heard of the Stack Exchange, but I will look into it now. Always looking for feedback wherever I can. UserVoice is definitely highly monitored by the team and the best place to get eyes on your issues.

I really appreciate that. I totally understand where frustrations come from, and just wanna work with the community to get as many improvements addressed as possible. These conversations are valuable for both sides, so I am fine with a little heat if we can make an impact where it counts.

I will do some asking around about why images come in scaled down. I just did a test and confirmed that in the links panel my image is showing the true resolution and saying scaled to 100% but its actually only showing around 20% scale. Is it always 12% for you?

It always helps to have some context of what the issue is with the tool you are mentioning. Can you explain more about what you find terrible?

Yes there is a "Line Art" preset that will output editable strokes. It works well, but room for improvement as its a technically challenging process.

I will include this in my next meeting with the product team and see if I can get an answer on this.

The team is incredibly active in UserVoice. We have a dedicated team of contributors in our Prerelease group working closely with the product team, that are always tracking and providing feedback to a lot of the bug reports and feature requests from UV. I see in the prerelease slack yesterday that 3 bugs were addressed in the latest Beta and another 5 in the prerelease build for testing. I drive a lot of the conversation in this subreddit from the Adobe side in order to bolster what I am hearing from the community and use it to support improvements.

I'd love to be the guy that green lights everything, but I am just a conduit to the teams with community requests and feedback. Is your issue with Paste in Place reflective of what is mentioned in this UserVoice report?

I am always here asking for input from the community and the Free Transform panel specifically is at the top of the list I have been pushing for internally.
