OK, so my SWAG was wrong. Sorry.
So I did some testing. Rev 2.6.1 on OS X 10.4.2.
Script:
on mouseUp
set the explicitVariables to true
hide image 1
show image 1 with visual barn door open
set the explicitVariables to false
end mouseUp
Everything works exactly as I expect. I tried removing the word
"visual". Still works. I tried quoting the effect. Still works. I
even tried using the same syntax as the line you said didn't work.
Works fine.
So there's evidently something else going on in your stack or there's
a platform-specific issue here.

Ok, I see, well if I just do:
show image 1
hide image 1
set the fileName of image 1 to "myfile.jpg"
Or anything that doesn't use "visual effects" it works fine. In
fact if I use one-word effects like dissolve it works too.
Just tried doing this:
show image "ImageSplash" with "barn door open" and it still doesn't
work!
Although
show image "ImageSplash" does!
A mystery!
Bye for now

I didn't make myself clear.
The image is undoubtedly still there. But if, inside your script,
you have explicit declaration of variables required, then my
question -- and I don't have the answer at hand -- is whether if
you named the image, say "pic1" and then did:
show image "pic1" with visual effect "barn door dissolve"
it would work.
From the Message Box, you'd expect the behavior to be different
since the explicitVariables declaration wouldn't be effective there.
It's just a thought. May be completely off target. I never use
explicitVariables.

Hi,
No, the image is definitely there, since other parts of the code
reference it just fine, also this was working before and only
broke when change something completely unrelated. Also if I do
the exact same from the Message Box it works fine.
Thanks anyway
Dave
Dave...
Just a SWAG but I suspect the complaint about the unquoted
literal applies to the name of the image, not the visual effect.
Since you have preferences set to declare locals within
handlers, there's probably no declaration for an image called "1".

Hi,
That's got to be the weirdest subject line when you consider we
are talking about a programming environment!
I changed a script that was created by an older version of rev.
It has a line in it:
show image 1 with visual effect barn door open
When I hit apply on the script I get a unquoted literal error,
so I changed it to
show image 1 with visual effect "barn door open"
and now the image doesn't show!
I have the preference set so that you have to declare local's
within handlers, which is why I think it's complaining. What is
the correct syntax for this?
Thanks in Advance!
All the Best
Dave
