Description

Percentage

`pcnt'

Fixed

This parameter is a tween. QuickTime will render the frame of the effect indicated by the tween's current value, as a percentage of the whole effect. If the tween goes from 0 to 100, the effect renders completely. If the tween goes from 25 to 75, for example, rendering begins 25% into the effect and terminates 75% through the effect.

Implode Centre X

`xcnt'

Fixed

The x-coordinate of the implosion centre.

Implode Centre Y

`ycnt'

Fixed

The y-coordinate of the implosion centre.
