I know that something has changed because I use this shortcut constantly and my muscle memory is failing me.
Expected behavior:
- With an object selected Press “k” on the keyboard
- UI switches to Scale tool (if not already there) AND auto-focuses + highlights the value in the #x scale field
- Type desired scale value
- “Enter” to confirm
- Ex: select object with Move tool + “k” + “.5” + “Enter” = item reduced by 50% from center - it’s so easy, I do it all the time.
Observed behavior as of 12/13/25 @ 5pm PST:
- Pressing “k” while on Scale tool behaves as expected
- Pressing “k” while on Move swaps to the Scale tool, but DOES NOT FOCUS the #x scale field
- In order to focus the #x scale field from Move, I now have to press “k” TWICE in a row (once to change tools and a second time to focus the #x field).
- As a result, my muscle memory keeps resulting in an object that is some lower opacity because “k” + “.5” now switches to the scale tool and then drops the opacity to 5 because the #x scale field isn’t auto-focused.
Very annoying, please revert!
