                 back on now by choosing View>Snap.
                   Uncheck
                  this option.

                                                                                          click and drag in the

             5.  Click the Rating layer in the Layers panel to select it.

             6.  Click in the image window and drag until the Rating layer content snaps
                 to the bottom-left live-area guides.

             7.  With the Rating layer still active, choose Edit>Free Transform.
                 When you use the transform options,         A   B  C  D    E  F  G   H               I   J K
                 bounding-box handles surround the

                 selection in the document window. The
                 Options bar presents a number of options for
                 controlling the transformations numerically:
                 A Reference Point Location. This

                    determines the point around which
                    numeric transformations are made. It
                    defaults to the center point. To choose a
                    different point, you have to check the   Bounding-box handles surround the

                    related box.                              content that is being transformed.
                 B Set Horizontal Position of Reference Point. This is the X position of the refer-

                    ence point for the content being transformed. If the center reference point is se-
                    lected, for example, this is the X position of the center point of the active content.
                 C Use Relative Positioning for Reference Point. If this option is active, the Set

                    Horizontal Position and Set Vertical Position fields default to 0; changing these values
                    moves the reference point by the value you type. For example, typing “–25” in the Set
                    Horizontal Posi tion field moves the active content 25 pixels to the left.


                 D Set Vertical Position of Reference Point. This is the Y position of the reference
                    point for the content being transformed.

                 E Set Horizontal Scale. Use this field to change the content’s horizontal scale percentage.

                 F Maintain Aspect Ratio. When active, the horizontal scale and vertical scale fields
                    are locked to have the same value.

                 G Set Vertical Scale. Use this field to change the content’s vertical scale percentage.
                 H Rotate. Use this field to rotate the transformed content by a specific angle.


                 I  Switch Between Free Transform and Warp Modes. If available, click this button
                    to apply a built-in warp to the active selection.
                 J  Cancel Transform. Click this button (or press the Esc key) to exit Free Transform
                    mode without applying any transformation.
                 K Commit Transform. Click this button (or press Return/Enter) to finalize the

                    transformation that you applied while in Free Transform mode. You can also sim-
                    ply click away from the area in the bounding box to finalize the transformation.
