Resize content - Maintain ratio when dragging from one of the right angle

[Loki@99]

Hi,

It's a feature request.

Feature description
Resize objects from one of the right angle should keep ratio like in Microsoft Office apps.

Why ? User scenario
My device is a 2-in-1 tablet that I mostly use without keyboard (no access to Shift key) and there's no way to do so with current PDFXCE features.

It will be also intuitive for users using stylus.

Thanks for considering this,

Hi, Loki@99

I asked the devs for their feedback on this suggestion, and they say that most apps do as we do, and that they will think on it.

At the moment I have no good idea how to force the proportional resize without using the keyboard.

So this may change, but when or how is not clear at this point.

Hi Paul,

An alternative is to add a small button for locking/unlocking ratio like this

It will also fix the issue.

Thanks for forwarding this,

Hi, Loki@99

nice suggestion! I added it to the ticket, which I forgot to inform you about! Sorry for that.

The ticket is for internal use only, but if you refer to RT#6928: Feature Request :: Editor :: Resize content - Maintain ratio when dragging from one of the right angle here then we can get you an update.
