No. It's because switches in JSW64 are guardians and use
guardian-based collision detection. When the switch detects a
collision, it stops drawing. I could probably fix it if there were
more spare bytes available, but there aren't so I can't.

Cheers John. No worries , I got a plan that I may use to bodge it
where by I'll use a second air/water cell to make the main body of the
switch(the unanimated part) Then Willy can only affect the few pixels
that make up the animating handle.
