Resizing a graphic in Visio does not lock aspect ratio
- Aug 11, 2021
Open the shape sheet and under protection change the value of LockAspect from 0 to 1.
I use Visio 2019 Professional. There i can resize foreign image with aspect ratio:
1. Pull the vertex (corner) of the image
2. Press SHIFT key and pull handle (middle of side) of the image.

- DeletedNov 10, 2021in other applications you can find same behavior: pulling a corner handle resize shape with protect aspect ratio!

Deleted : I am using Microsoft Professional 2019.
I imported a graphic.
When I select the graphic, and hold down the Shift key, the aspect ratio is not constrained.
Visio is the only program I've ever used where the Shift key does not constrain the aspect ratio. It is very strange behavior.
Is there a setting that needs to be changed?
- DeletedAug 24, 2021At my side i have correct settings by default !

I opened the Options window in Visio. I was not able to find a Setting pertaining to aspect ratio.
Could you direct me to the Setting that needs to be revised?
