The following are text codes that you may use with this plugin.
While the \Effect<name> part of the text code is hardcoded, the actual settings for each of the text effect types can be modified through the Plugin Parameters.
These Text Effects can ONLY be used for the Message Window and nothing else. Everything else will have the text be displayed normally. This means you CANNOT use Animated Message Text Effects for the Help Window, Choice Window, Status Window, etc. Only the main Message Window can support them.

General Text Effect-Related Text Codes

-------------------- -----------------------------------------------------
Text Code Animated Text Effect (Message Window Only)
-------------------- -----------------------------------------------------
\Effect<name> Changes the text effect to "name" where "name" is
based on the Plugin Parameter "Name" setting. The
text effect will then be applied to regular text
characters and icons. Other visual text code graphics
won't have custom text effects applied to them.
\Effect<Normal> Returns the text effect type to "normal". No shaking,
angle changing, etc. effects will be seen. Just plain
old normal text.
<Clear Effect> Same as \Effect<Normal> as it will return the text
effect type to "normal". There are no differences
between usage as it is up to personal preference on
which you want to use.

Combining Text Effects
---
\Effect<type, type> \Effect<type, type, type> \Effect<type, type, type, type> \Effect<type, type, type, type, type>
You can combine text effects with one another provided that they are of different types (NOT subtypes). What this means is you can pick an angle-type text effect, combine it with a color-type text effect along with something like a positioning-type text effect and produce results.
You cannot combine same types together such as a positioning-type with another positioning type.
Examples:
\Effect<Swing, Rainbow> \Effect<Wag, Flow, HorzWave> \Effect<Jelly, Shiver, HorzCard>
