           Summary: For some view objects, maintain aspect can be lost when
                    resized or newly created objects encounter bounds.
           Product: kst
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kst kde org

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

Maintain aspect on resize/create new is slightly borked.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Create a rectangle.
2. Resize it with the shift key pressed down to maintain aspect, until one edge of the rectangle encounters its parents' bounds. 

RESULT: 
The rectangle will start to lose its aspect.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR:
The rectangle maintains its aspect?

This behaviour is common to all of the other view objects, except lines (which were fixed in a recent bug). It's not a huge problem, but could be annoying for picture objects.

It also occurs for all view objects when creating new. Right now, creating new objects and resizing them use completely different code. I'll try to bring them together.

I think that fixing this bug may require removing the current snap on resize behaviour, at least when objects are resized with maintain aspect. Are there any objections to this?
