One way to restrict a visual effect to a portion of the screen is to use the
effect with hide/show:
show grp 1 with visual push down
hide grp 1 with visual push up
However, this will not work with overlapping objects. You would have to
make sure the affected object can be displayed independent
If the new window is non-resizable you could group all the controls
together and then do a loop to set the height of the new window and
move the group.. I'd recommend locking the screen so you can set the
topLeft of the new window and not have it bouncing all over the screen..
