Clip Layer

Restricts the visible portion of a layer

Takes four length parameters in pixel units, measured from the initial top left corner of the layer:

• Top: the offset of the top edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial top edge
• Left: the offset of the left edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial left edge

Glide Layer

Causes a layer to “glide” from a starting position to a final position

The smaller the value of the Speed parameter, the faster the motion (0 is fastest). This value is relative; the actual speed depends on the browser and the computer. The Step parameter means the number of pixels the layer moves with each step.

Negative values are allowed.

Wipe Layer

Causes a layer to seem to “grow” from the specified starting coordinates to the specified ending coordinates

Takes eight length parameters in pixel units, measured from the initial top left corner of the layer:

• Starting top: the offset of the top edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial top edge at the beginning of the wipe

• Starting left: the offset of the left edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial left edge at the beginning of the wipe

• Starting right: the offset of the right edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial left edge at the beginning of the wipe

• Starting bottom: the offset of the bottom edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial top edge at the beginning of the wipe

• Ending top: the offset of the top edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial top edge at the end of the wipe

• Ending left: the offset of the left edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial left edge at the end of the wipe

• Ending right: the offset of the right edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial left edge at the end of the wipe

• Ending bottom: the offset of the bottom edge of the visible portion of the layer from its initial top edge at the end of the wipe
