Why would you use the Layer Transformation tool instead of the Select Tool in Storyboard Pro?

Using the Layer Transformation tool is optimal because it allows for repositioning and animating the entire layer, offering significant flexibility with storyboard elements. When you want to move an entire layer or apply transformations such as rotation or scaling, the Layer Transformation tool provides the necessary functionalities specifically designed for managing layer-level adjustments.

Unlike other tools, the Layer Transformation tool supports the ability to animate these transformations over time, which is vital for creating dynamic storytelling through movement and changes in positioning within the scene. This makes it particularly advantageous for animators and storyboard artists who need to convey action or progression in their sequences.

The other options, while relevant to certain functionalities within Storyboard Pro, do not capture the unique capability of the Layer Transformation tool to facilitate comprehensive layer-level manipulation and animation.
