Unable to apply JqueryUI Resizable AspectRatio after initialization?

Question

I was trying to turn the aspect ratios on/off dynamically in JQueryUI resizable, however even after setting the option to false, it keeps maintaining the aspect ratio. Below is

Answer 1

This worked for me with no patching

  .data('uiResizable')._aspectRatio = false;

This part .data('uiResizable')._aspectRatio = false; comes to the rescue
