Unable to resize object in proportion by holding shift key

When selecting an object (text or otherwise) I have been able to constrain proportion by holding down shift while draging the object larger/smaller. Now, I can find no way to constrain? Did I somehow turn off a preference?

Help, this is my most "convenient" task.

I've always used Command/Option/Shift and drag.

I've done some extensive "cleaning" on HD and rebooted. It's working now with Shift. The difference in Shift and Shift/Command/Option is simply that one drags in the direction that you pull, the other pulls "from center". But neither were working before.

I don't know what the conflict was....but it's gone now.

Thanks,
James

I had the same problem recently.
Rebooting solved it, too.
