Grid transforms? - grit - 11-20-2018
Is there in Gimp transform which lets you do this with points?

Yes but it is not fully developed and no good for large images ( > 2000x2000 pix)
Using Windows? Easiest way is open up the Gimp launcher and add after the ...gimp-2.10.exe" add (a space) --show-playground. Apply that and start Gimp.
In Edit -> Preferences there is now an entry Playground select that and enable N-Point Deformation Tool

Restart Gimp and there is a new icon in the toolbox. Choose that, set some values, click in the canvas, click on a node and drag. Works best if there is transparency, otherwise the whole canvas becomes a grid.

edit: Your screenshot is from Ad*be Illustrator - a vector application - so the equivalent in Inkscape is a lattice deformation. https://i.imgur.com/klGDhfU.jpg

Gimp's 'Cage Transform' is close, or even the new on-canvas 'Warp Transform' with the 'Move' option.

Photoshop also has a tool that looks and acts like this. Its also called 'Warp Transform'.
