It targets itself.  So you could use it, eg, to get a movieclip to move

itself, with this code in 2 subsequent frames: 

  Set Property ("", X Position) = GetProperty("",_x)+1


which can be even more reduced to:

 Set Property ("", X Position) = _x+1


(No, it's not in the manual  ;-)


Jason, Sorry -- didn't mean to single you out about the name of this

effect; I did see it mispelled by others and realized you were just

copying that, but couldn't resist commenting...


And Frederico, see a doctor today -- I fear you may have contracted the

dreaded tsutsugamushi.


Regards,

Helen
