I can stretch an image anyway you want. I took your example and used a combination of the handles and lock buttons. Maybe take a look at the attached XAR in post #9. Forget the crop part (that was just to highlight what needed to be done for that specific image).
You have two buttons, handles and lock, and (at least) three possible outcomes which (I think) I have explained. Just try turning the buttons on/off and you will see the effect on an image.
Chris M. - I don't understand why it seems to work for you and not for me. Just so I understand, you simply hold down the Alt button and drag one of the handles in the middle of a side and the image stretches in that direction only, without loosing parts of the image on the edges of the other direction. Does the image in my attachment do that properly on your computer? That must mean that there's something wrong with my software, but if that's the case, why didn't the problem resolve when I downloaded a fresh iteration of the program?
Here's all I did: Pressed ALT and dragged the centre handle upwards.
Like I said, I don't do this very often, but happy to check any settings you want me to.

I apologize Initiostar, I apparently didn't read your post accurately. When I had the aspect ratio button (padlock) unpressed and dragged without the Alt key it worked the way I want it to. I thought I'd tried every possible combination of buttons and keys but I must have missed this one. But, now I'm able to do it the way I want.
Many thanks, all!!
thats good :)
anyone reading this, if you update to the current pro+ ver21 the show boundary handles button is no longer there :rolleyes:
