A useful thing is to select Use Limits in the Figure drop-down box.

Generally speaking, you should select Show All Tools, in the Window 
drop-down box.


The important thing to be aware of is that you can (and often should) tweak 
the sensitivity of the different tools. For the transformation tools you 
mentioned , you can restrict the amount of change, or in-/decrease the 
sensitivity in the Properties box: click on the black arrow following the 
different transformations and click on Settings... then change the 
Sensitivity and/or the Limits. However, for the basic transformations, I 
always use the sliders as I find them easier to use than pulling an arm in 
3D space so to speak :-)

For the Morphing Tool, you can in-/decrease the Exageration Min/Max sliders 
in the Tool's box, under Combine, and the Magnitude under Create, where you 
can also select the different morphing tools (Push; Pull; Smooth; Restore).
