Hi Gimp Users
When I use the Unified tool and make a ZOOM in to the picture
I can not see the handle or corners of the tool to make the changes.
How can I zoom in and use the tool ?
Thanks

Use "View > new view". This will get you a second view in your image.
- Keep the second view at standard size (or zoomed out...)
- Start the transform tool while the standard size window is active
- Make sure that the tool options has "composited preview" checked (otherwise the layer in the zoomed window wil be transparent)
- Apply the tool in the standard window, while checking the results in the zoomed window
- You can of course zoom/scroll the zoomed window
- When done you can close the secondary view, as long as there is at least one view Gimp keeps the image, and will complain if you try to close the last view without saving
- Btw, the title bar identifies the view: in the X.Y number after "Imported" the X is the image identifier ("1" because this is the first image I loaded after I started Gimp, and Y is the view number ("0" for the one created by default, then "1", "2"...)
Example: aligning the wing edge to a vertical guide:
