Two suggestions: 1) Don't use an effect. Script a *real* panel (a group of controls) and move it in and out of position as needed. 2) If you really want to use an effect, you can place your content/controls in a group, position the group at the top of the card (or wherever you want your sheet to slide into), hide the group, and then try the following: show group fakeSheet with visual push down fast ...to show the group "sheet style". To "unsheet" the group, use: hide group fakeSheet with visual push up fast While visual effects are normally applied to an entire card, using a visual effect with hide/show localizes the effect the rect of the object being hidden/shown. This is a handy technique when you don't want an effect applied to the entire card.
