CS6 Free Transform ctrl drag not working properly

Question

Anybody on this ...
When I use the free transform tool crtr-T and use the ctrl drag button,  the corners do not extend properly.  It extends universally as aposed to a distorted corner-pull.   I uninstalled CS6 and reinstalled still getting the same result.  Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks

What conroy wrote convert a smart object layer to a smart object layer may seem a bit strange but he is correct. All smart object layers are not created equal they may contain many types of smart objects.  An  illustrator vector file placed in can most likely be reopened  in illustrator by double clicking on the layers smart icon in the layers palette and transform the vector object in illustrator and when saved in illustrator the embedded smart object will be updated to reflect the changes made in illustrator.  If you encapsulate a VSO into a Smart Object when you transform the resulting smart object layer it will be transformed like a raster layer using interpolation like all Smart Object layers  are transformed. If you want to transform a layer that contain vector graphics using vector graphics you need to correct tools. Transform I would think would only transform Vector Shape Layer using vectors and change Text layer by changing font size all other layer types would be interpolated.  An embedded smart object the contains many Photoshop layers some which are text and vector layers like a places PSD file may be transform better using Photoshop Image Size and then transforming the resulting updated smart object layer if your increasing the layers size.
