# Layer Manipulation
Layer manipulation covers the core tools and controls for selecting, positioning, and transforming layers on the canvas. These docs explain how to interact with layers directly, from basic selection and movement to precise transforms and custom pivot points.

Inside this section, you'll learn how to:

<List type="bullet">
  <ListItem>Select single or multiple layers using the Selection Tool</ListItem>
  <ListItem>Move layers freely or with pixel perfect precision</ListItem>
  <ListItem>Scale, rotate, skew, and align layers using transform controls</ListItem>
  <ListItem>Adjust the anchor point to control where transformations originate</ListItem>
</List>

Use these tools together to create accurate layouts, responsive animations, and natural motion.
