The word "effect" is optional. The visual effects you can use are: zoom open zoom close dissolve checkerboard venitian blinds iris open iris close wipe left wipe right wipe up wipe down barn door open barn door close scroll left scroll right scroll up scroll down You can also add these modifiers AFTER the effect: fast slow or slowly very fast very slow or very slowly Try the Test Button, then change the first visual effect to "iris close". Test it, then add the word "slowly" after "iris close". You can also add these added effects after the main effect: to black to gray to to white to inverse Now try "iris close slowly to gray". Experiment with the different types of effects to see what they do. (The "set lockMessages to true/false" commands in the Script Window are needed for this tutorial. You do not need them when writing your own scripts.)
