Ð ÐCage Transform: A unique transforming tool that enables you to freely draw anchor points to choose the transforming
area, much like the Free Selection (Lasso) tool.
Ð ÐWarp Transform: Similar to the one available in Photoshop, it operates on the actual picture itself rather than in a
small preview window. You can partly undo the warping you applied by using the erase mode.
You can choose which picture element the transform tool will work on using one of three
buttons that GIMP provides.
Ð ÐThe tool operates on the active layer when the first button is pressed. The entire layer
will be altered if there is no selection in this layer.
Ð ÐThe tool only affects the selection contour when the second button is pressed (the
whole layer contour if no selection).
Ð ÐThe tool only functions on the path when the third button is pressed.
ÐThe fourth button, which is new in GIMP-2.10.14, applies the modification to every layer.
