Summary | Displays the QuickTime special effects dialog box. | |||||||||
Introduced | 1.1 | |||||||||
Changes | The use of QuickTime was deprecated in version 8.1 of LiveCode with new defaults for dontUseQT and dontUseQTEffects as true on all systems apart from pre OS X 10.8. The Windows build of LiveCode no longer supports any QuickTime features and setting the dontUseQT and dontUseQTEffects will have no effect. Additionally QuickTime does not include 64 bit support and therefore can not be supported on OS X 64 bit builds of LiveCode. | |||||||||

Description | Use the answer effect command to choose a visual effect, or to set up an effect with complex options for later use. The answer effect command displays a dialog box where the user can select a visual effect and (for some effects) set parameters such as speed and direction. (This dialog box is displayed by QuickTime, not by LiveCode.) | |||||||||
