THANK YOU Vincent !

I already had ‘Scale Strokes & Effects’ checked..
but I unchecked and rechecked it .. and it works now.

I’m so thankful for forums like this, and people like you, who take the time to keep me from going more looney than I already am 🙂

thanks again !

hoping someone is following this thread..
i have the same issue ..
on a PC, Illustrator CS5 .. have deleted my entire Adobe Illustrator CS5.1 Settings folder and had it regenerated .. but still can’t resize a drawn object without it distorting.

text resizes fine, but
i have drawn a circle, using the outline color only, no fill.
i have added some effects .. blur and shadow.
if i try to transform to a smaller dimension (using % or bounding box handles), the circle becomes thicker
i have uploaded a visual showing this..

this is driving me crazy 🙂
any suggestions appreciated.

thank you
