    Description:
    In Illustrator Beta 2025, proportional scaling does not work as expected. Even when I click and drag a corner handle without holding Shift, the object does not scale proportionally — it stretches freely. This happens with simple shapes like rectangles, using the default Selection Tool (V).

    I have:

    Reset preferences (Cmd/Ctrl + Option/Alt + Shift)

    Checked the "Scale Strokes & Effects" and "Constrain Proportions" settings

    Ensured the transform link icon is active in the Transform panel

    Tried both new and existing documents

    Expected behavior: dragging a corner handle without holding Shift should maintain proportions by default.

    Please investigate — this behavior is inconsistent with the expected and advertised default in the latest beta version.
