Works great thank you! I did read the documentation (before I asked and after) but I would never have guessed this is what I am supposed to do to achieve what I want. Never ever. I imagine it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if some practical examples of how to use actions be added to the Core Animation Programming Guide or the Cookbook. Anyway, thanks again!
