13.8.1. Overview

This filter applies a transformation recursively.

As in Unified Transform tool, this filter display a frame around the image with several kind of handles:

Diamonds for shearing

Shear
Squares for scaling horizontally or vertically.

Scale horizontally
Small diamonds for changing perspective, in large squares for Scaling in all directions.

Şekil 17.306. Changing perspective

Change perspective

The same pressing Ctrl

Şekil 17.307. Scaling in all directions

Scaling

and outside the frame, the mouse pointer comes with a rotation icon: click-and-drag to rotate around the pivot. This pivot is, by default, at the center of the image: click-and-drag to move it.
