Transform Panel

Can we have an option to enable the legacy TRANSFORM panel? The new design of the transform panel in 15 impacts my workflow.

Thanks for sharing your concerns about the new Transform panel design in version 15. I understand how changes like this can disrupt a well-established workflow.

The “legacy” Transform panel is no longer available, but if there are specific steps in your workflow that the new panel has complicated, feel free to share them. We continually try to improve our software and have some more ideas for the Transform panel.

It’s OK; I’ll just teach this old dog new tricks…

I would love to see the Move transform come back to the Transform panel.

Remember when we used to be able to move a shape or group of points by a specific x or y quantity? Pretty great!

Within the Transform panel, you can use basic arithmetic. For example, if the current X position is 120 and you want to move it by 30 units, just type “120+30” into the edit box. The same applies for the Y position.

Ah, I see. So it’s always tied to the “Corner or middle of contour” for a group of points.

Does that mean we’ve lost the ability to set all points to the same X- or Y-coordinate at the same time?

Yes, that’s correct. To set all points to the same X or Y coordinate, you need to use the align options.
