Elements (squares circles lines etc) cannot drag to size?

Working on cards that require a rectangle, but all I can do is increase the size of the square.  

What am I missing, is there something new to click on

Hold down the shift key while dragging and then you can make it a rectangle. Hope this helps. Took me a minute to figure out too!

Why yes it does, thanks ever so much.  This must be new because I use those elements all the time and most of the time I drag the square into a rectangle.  

Thank you so much. They should put that information under the shapes.

yes, they changed the text boxes as well.  I swear every time I get used to doing something, they go and make it the opposite.

The text box thing is driving me nuts! I can only image how hard it is to manipulate it on an ipad where you can't hold down shift!

I also wish they would put a little like 'pop up' warning for the first time you use the design tool after changes are made.  The places that they put the announcements are so easy to miss.

After years of knowing what buttons to click on I keep hitting the wrong one. I thought by now I would have it straight but my muscle memory still insists which place to go next.
