I agree with Alex. Say you have a View with a button... you mutate that button's click="" event into a CairngormEvent. Your custom Cg Event triggers a Cg Command, which sets state in the ModelLocator. New to Beta 3 is a utility called ChangeWatcher that allows you to watch a bindable value and define a handler to run when the value changes. In the original View (or any other View) you could simply watch that state var and have ChangeWatcher call yourMoveEffect.play(). You could mutate the standard effectEnd="" event into a new CairngormEvent that triggered the Cg Command that needs to run at the end of the effect.
