Rename allows you to assign a custom name to

the buffer. The name will also be visible in
menus (such as DSK source menus).

The Unload option clears the effect, freeing

Switcher Memory reserved for effects.

Hint: A small [x] button appears over the upper-right corner on rolling the cursor into a

As mentioned earlier, animation effects can be of either looping or auto-run type (the
type determination is made in the Animation Store Creator utility when the effect is
generated).

Loading either class of animation effect into a buffer results in a time control being
displayed at right in the buffer label below the icon (Figure 208).
