  Hi,
  
  I’m working in the new version (4.27.102). When I try to set the scale of the background image the X-Y relation changes (the image stretches). This never happened in the old version. Is this a bug or can I lock the X-Y relationship so the background image does not distort?
  
  Any and all help appreciated. Thanks.

  The separate X and Y scale for background images was introduced in version 4.11 to account for distored images, for example if you’re using a scanned image of a distorted paper drawing. To be able to force the program to use the same scale factor in both directions seems like a good idea. I’ll add this and make it available through the automatic updates function.

  Thank you for your quick response.
  
  I agree it makes sense to have both. Looking forward to the update!
