- try putting the effect in quotes e.g. unlock screen with visual "iris open"
- I prefer this way of using visual effects:
lock screen
show group "Foo"
visual effect "iris open" -- queue the effect for next unlock
unlock screen
- this allows you to add the optional speed parameter to the visual effect, but it is still processor and graphics dependent.

The following is repeatable on both an HP laptop and a desktop running WinXP. This along with a number of other inconsitencies of Rev on PC's is driving me crazy to the point I'm on the verge of giving up on it, and I really don't want to. If anybody can help I'd appreciate it.
If I create a simple one card stack with a single button that has the following script everything works fine;
on mouseUp
put the ticks
end mouseUp
The ticks get put into the message box.
I can also create a simple one card stack with three graphics grouped and named "Foo", and a button with the following script, and everything works fine;
on mouseUp
hide grp "Foo"
lock screen
show group "Foo"
unlock screen with visual iris open
end mouseUp
The group shows with an iris open, albeit at completely different speeds on each machine.
However, if I add "put the ticks" in the second example as follows, I get an "unquoted literal" error at the line "unlock screen with visual iris open".
on mouseUp put the ticks hide grp "Foo" lock screen show group "Foo" unlock screen with visual iris open end mouseUp
I can repeat this with other handlers and get different errors, but in every case I do not get errors when doing the same on a Mac.
Is the error handling different on the PC ? I have reloaded Rev a couple of times and just accept the default settings regarding the script editor etc.
Thanks for your consideration, Bob...
