I have two overlapping images.
Using Auto align I let Photoshop align them.
It is clearly visible that (in my case) the right image has been 
transformed in a number of ways.

Now, I wonder:
- Is there a way to know how the transformation has been done? I mean 
there must be a number of numerical values that have been applied to the 
various kinds of transformations (scale,rotate, skew etc) that Photoshop 
may have chosen from.

-If I convert the layer containing the right picture to a "Smart object" 
the command "Replace contents" becomes available.
The documentations says: "When you replace a Smart Object, any scaling, 
warping, or effects that you applied to the first Smart Object are 
maintained."
However, if I replace the contents of my right (transformed) picture, 
the replacement comes in without any visible transformation.


How can this dilemma be solved?
