Barn Door Open Problem

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.
