Understanding link between render translation and x,y position

I am trying to understand how the set render translation node of the “on drag detected” function links to the x and y position of the widget item. From the attached image it can be seen that the x position is 1308 and the y position is 140. My question is how does this link to the set render translation node in drag function?

AFAIK, render transforms allow you to display the image in a location and scale and rotation OTHER than the one it reports to the code for all other intents and purposes.I can see this coming in handy so that it doesn’t push other elements around when scaling it in an animation for example.

I have never tried changing the render transforms but that’s what I heard they do.
