for the delegated DSK or KEY layer(s) will be affected as well. Depending on their
current status, this may bring them into view, or remove them from view. This allows,
for example, to simultaneously hide one DSK (such as a title page) while revealing


SHIFT + AUTO: Reverse direction to fully remove or display delegated video

F(Fast) transition speeds. Recall, too, that multi-selection is supported.
