* When this option is enabled, each intersection point of your grid (source or destination grid) may be moved in space along three axes ( width, height and depth) the effect of which will result in immediate distortion of the current image.

The latter may be identified by their position on the grid (see below).

The warp grid is an extremely useful animation tool and is capable of distorting the images in time according to the criteria of your choice.
