plain

Type

keyword

Summary

Used with the visual effect command to designate a simple "cut" effect. Also used with the textStyle property to indicate plain text with no added styling.

Syntax

plain

Description

Use the plain keyword to create a visual effect that goes directly to the ending image, or to remove styles from an object or a chunk of text in a field.

Setting the textStyle of an object or chunk to plain removes all styles (such as bold or italic) that have previously been applied to the object or chunk.

The plain visual effect cuts directly to the final image, as though a visual effect had not been used at all.

Examples

hide field 3 with visual effect plain to gray

set the textStyle of field "Alert" to plain
