Answers.Text: Premiere will choose the one you double click on, just make sure you haven't selected one already, it wont select a different image when there is one already being selected.
  The topology in the timeline is also a factor, even if an image is not visible it will still be selected when double clicked on.

Answers.Text: Thanks but not sure if I'm seeing that happen myself. For example if I have a title on top of an image, I always get the title moving when I click. Presumably a solution is to turn off the title, or just temporarily move it elsewhere to get at the image to move that (which I actually did in the end.) Cheers!

Answers.Text: It depends on the layer size, if the layer is full frame with surrounding alpha it will still select the layer even when double clicked in the alpha part where a different layer is visible, its similar behavior as in Photoshop.

Body: <p>I would like to be able to position a still image using the mouse/pointer directly on the image, to be able to drag the whole image around or resize it by dragging one of its corners or sides.</p>
  
  <p>I'm sure I did this earlier but don't know which part of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 does it. </p>
  
  <p>Sure, there's the Effect Controls but this seems to only provide for indirectly resizing and positioning the image - i.e. I mouse drag on the numbers themselves and see the effect.</p>
