Visual Effects unexpected differences

Hi all,

Recently, I was testing the visual effects in Livecode 7 dp6
and noticed the following:

1) Barn Door [close/open] visual effect works fine
although is not included in the Dictionary

2) Visual effects:
Plain, Checkerboard, Venetian Blinds, Wipe,
Barn Door, Dissolve, Iris
works only in the control, without affecting
the rectangular area around the control
(use a transparent png over a photo or
a background pattern)

3) Visual effects:
Push, Reveal, Scroll, Shrink, Stretch, Zoom
works over all control's rectangular area
affecting all surrounding controls.
(use a transparent png over a photo or
a background pattern)

I found these visual effects:
Push, Reveal, Scroll, Shrink, Stretch, Zoom
will be more useful if they do not affect
the whole rectangle of the control, just
the shape of the control itself

What's your opinion?
Did you think that all these effects would be
more useful if the use only the control shape
and not the whole rectangular area?
