Accents 12
- BurstEffect

Adds four-point stars, single or a cluster, that pop and turn in, optionally twinkling while the layer lasts.
- Circle aroundEffect
Adds a hand-drawn loop that draws itself once or twice round the selected layers, fitted to their edges.
- UnderlineEffect
Draws a straight, wavy or scribbled line under the text, a strike through it, or a marker highlight behind it.
- ArrowEffect
Adds a curved or straight arrow that draws on from Accent Start to Accent End, its head riding the tip.
- Scribble fillEffect
Adds loose scribble or even zigzag strokes that draw themselves over the selected layer's box, placed behind it.
- ConfettiEffect
Adds pieces in up to three colours that pop up and tumble down, or shower down from above.

- Pulse dotEffect
Adds a dot that pops in with a pulsing halo; the Badge kind adds a white ring round it.
