pick tool isn't a rectangle

[peggysimmons]

There is probably a simple solution, but I've sent two days trying to find it. When I use the pick tool to drag the size of the picture down, I am getting a trapezoid shape. I'd like to set it back to the rectangle that evenly resizes the picture with the aspect ratio between heigth and width the same as the original picture. There is a small trapezoid next to the nodes when i select the picture. How do I change it back to a rectangle?

Make sure the Mode on the Tools Option tool-bar is set to Scale.

THank you!. That solved the problem.

You are possibly holding or resting your finger on the Control key which changes the pick tool mode to Perspective while the Shift key changes it to Shear. Its default is Scale.
