                 Transform Tools
                 The primary purpose of transform tools is to change how an image or a specific component of an image appears. Let’s
                 understand some of the commonly used transform tools included in the toolbox:

                 Ð ÐMove: Moves selections and layers.
                 Ð ÐAlign:  Arranges layers and/or other objects by aligning them.
                  ÐCrop:  Resizes the image by cropping it.
                 Ð
                 Ð ÐRotate: Rotates the currently selected layer, path, or selection.
                 Ð ÐScale: The active layer, selection, or path is scaled by the Scale command.
                  ÐShear:  Moves a portion of an image to a different position.
                 Ð
                 Ð ÐPerspective: Modifies the active layer’s, selection’s, or path’s perspective.
                 Ð ÐFlip: Flips selections and layers.
                  ÐUnified Transform: Combines perspective, skewing, scaling, and rotation
                 Ð
                 Ð ÐHandle Transform: It is utilised for adjusting scaling.
