Transformations are applied in the sequence in which they are listed in the Select Transformations dialog. The list of transformations can have unique transformations, or a given transformation can be repeated as many times as required. If there are changes made to the applied list of transformations, for example if a Transformation was deleted, the Position entity will be automatically updated to incorporate these changes. If you clear the Applied check box, the transformations will be undone in the reverse order in which they were applied.
