This performs quick and dirty quickdraw procedures. It's handy for primitive animation and cheap effects. You need to supply all the parameters, with the first for as coordinates. Type can be "frame","invert","paint" or "erase". Shape can be either "oval" or "rect". If you have read Michael Swain's column about the best way to draw a circle, use this instead. You can draw the circle instantaneously! You don't have to worry about selecting the tool and telling hypercard to drag and all that. Note that the effects are not permanent; They will go away when you exit the card. You can also draw right over fields and buttons! The buttons and fields will return to normal when you select them. Do the tryme button.
