To Use EFFECT, all you need is a field on the card called
"EFFECTS CARD". That field should contain some lines of HyperTalk commands. Please note that there is no looping or branchingΓÇö the commands are executed sequentially.
To do your effect, simply include the new HyperTalk message EFFECT followed by the name of your effect, in quotes. For instance:
on mouseUp
effect "To Next Card"
end mouseUp
The name of the field on the effects card (that is, the name that you type in when you choose "field info…") should be the same name as your effect. In the above example, there should be a card field named "To Next Card" on the card called "Effects card" in your stack.
If there are errors in the HyperTalk code in the text field on the effects stack, you will be notified of those errors by HyperCard, but the remaining lines of Hypertalk will still be interpreted.
