Smart Object vs Pixel Object Bounding Box

When you’re transforming a Smart Object in Photoshop, the bounding box around the object looks different than when transforming a pixel base object.

With a Smart Object the transformation’s corner anchor points are solid dark grey, and there is an “X” that goes through the bounding box.

Pixel based objects have no “X” going through them, and the corner anchor points have no fill.
