what are you doing????Figma, tell me what’s this ?? 

In Edit mode, when I select all anchor points, I can’t drag the object by those selected points. Instead, it forces me into scaling/stretching. After mirroring the shape, I also can’t snap points together properly. This is seriously wrecking my user experience!!! Are you even running a staged rollout or beta testing? I don’t understand—please fix this feature or bug ASAP. I can’t take it anymore. Making icons is basically impossible like this!!!

I’m having this problem as well. I’ve never needed to scale a shape with individual vector points (as opposed to in regular edit or “move” mode), but I do very often need to manipulate/change a shape by moving anchor points. I now have to do this one anchor a time, rather than dragging over, or clicking and selecting 2+ at once, because as soon as more than one is selected, it shifts to this “scale” state and movement is completely restricted. I *think* this is a bug because there have been a couple random times where I am able to multi-select and move, but I haven’t been able to recreate it. Either way, please fix this!
