FabricJs uniform scale and the common user expectation

The common behaviour of resizing objects freely vs preserving the object proportion present in any image editors is already built-in in Fabric.js, and that’s great!

The problem is that the default setting is kinda the opposite to the common image editors out there.

If you begin resizing an object in a Fabric Canvas, the aspect-ratio of that object is preserved while by pressing the SHIFT command, it switches to the freely transformation mode.

I think this isn’t consistent.

To revert back to the common user expectation, here the magic line of code from doc:

canvas.uniformScaling = false

Happy Fabric.js!
