Describe the bug
when i scale an object it scales to grid, some people said disable grid or connection points, none of these worked and now i am just sitting waiting for an answer, i want to scale smoothly, because i cant connect my objects correctly or align them correctly its always one pixel away.

Edit:
Holding The Alt Key Doesnt Work, the format panel width and height paramaters are not sleek and take alot of time to adjust to, other than that it doesnt even resize correctly, making the grid size to 1 doesnt help either because thats what i was using, there is no snap to grid option in view

Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Reproduce the scaling behavior in the draw.io editor using Chrome on Windows 11, including grid size 1 and the reported alternatives of disabling the grid or connection points. Done means object resizing is precise and does not leave objects one pixel away from the intended alignment.
