A Spell that shorten's a unit's vision

I'm trying to make a spell that when activated will reduce enemy units' site vision to almost nothing. I don't believe there are any spells that currently do this so I believe it needs to use triggers... the only problem is I'm having trouble finding something to do this. I could use some help on this. Anybody out there know of a way with the editor? Thanks for your time.

There is no way to modify a unit sight, only if you make 2 units, and replace then with a trigger.

Actually, I found a way when I was trying to make a flare spell , only that units with life detection abilities are immune to this, you add to them an item sight bonus with a negative value

Excuse me for being such a newb, but I'm using the WC3 editor and am unable to go below 0 for the Sight Range Bonus in the Object Editor. I'm sure you can somehow so enlighten me. ^_^

(Also, can you give me a link to your Flare spell... it would probably be most helpful.)

Thanks!

to enter negative vaues you can either enable negatives in the preferences or you can shift+double click on what your editing, which will remove all limits from the field, be careful though, it could screw up the game
