how to drag a layer?
#1
We took two group pictures: 1 with me taking the picture (and me not in the picture) and a 2nd picture with me in the picture.  I want to add myself to the first picture.  So I have each picture in a layer.  And I have made the top layer with me and made it mostly transparent so I can see the other people of the first picture.  But there is a problem!

The 2nd picture was taken from a slightly different distance so the subjects appear bigger.  When I add myself to the first picture, I look abnormally large as compared to the other people.  My solution is to use Layer -> Scale Layer.  With some trial and error about the size, it works great!

But the scaled layer is now centered on top of the lower layer.  I wish to move the top layer (scaled) over to the side a little so that it is aligned with the left and bottom margins of the lower layer.  How to do?

I tried using Layer -> Transform -> Offset, but the image in the layer is shifted within the layer but it loses content instead of shifting the entire layer in relation to the bottom layer.
