Then, I thought 1) it be may be a bit tricky to include AffineTransform smoothly into warping panel with constraints on the number of vectors and good explanation 2) it may be a bit confusing as even with 3 vectors or less, warping do not give the same result as affine transform That's why I just proposed to improve AffineTransform to make it usable even by people who do not know warping tool At the moment, both tools are in the Warp submenu > > The New Affine Transformation is another way of doing it without the > need for vectors.

You're certainly right about warp meaning. The quick search I did about it gave me a french word having a wider meaning (deformer = deforming ?), but I agree that putting AffineTransform inside "Warp" submenu may be confusing for english users. On the other hand, at the moment, there is one AffineTransform is in the Warp menu and a New Affine Transformation in the editing menu, which, I think, is even more confusing (hum, in fact I already put the "New Affine Transform" in the Warp menu) What do you think about changing the term Warp of the submenu into another more appropriate word, and include "Warping", "Affine Transform from vectors", AffineTransform from parameters" into it ?
