the message in the help patch should go to 1 over a duration of one second, then jump to zero after one second and then ramp up again starting after 1 second (counting from the time when you clicked).
Which means: go to 1 over a duration of one second, then immediately (after that) jump to zero, then immediately (after that) ramp up again over a duration of a second: i.e., two consecutive ramps, sawtooth-like, in a total time of 2 seconds.
UNLESS _before that_ you have clicked some other message and the vline~ has an initial value of 1, in which case you won't notice the first ramp (because it is a ramp from 1 to 1) which _may_ be what confused the author of this thread.
