Animated gifs...

 [1/8] from: ronaldoff::free::fr at: 18-Nov-2002 23:42


Hello rebolisters, I'd like to use animated gifs in layouts. Is this possible, I couldn't find something related with this in escribe archives. -- Best regards, ronaldoff

If you have the original frames of the animated gif as seperate images you might be able to use the ANIM style in Layout. I haven't used it myself so I don't know what you must do or how well it will work for your purposes. I believe the image viewer Ifran View can split an animated gif into separate images.

Hmm. This seems ok, view layout [ANIM rate 3 frames read %gif-frames/ effect []] Where the folder %gif-frames holds all the individual frames. But while Ifraned extracted the frames ok, they were only the differences, not complete frames. So you if you have the original separate frames you could use anim. (Not exactly ideal I know). Regards, Brett.

It is some two years ago, or even more that I posted example (I don't have the script anymore :-), showing anim-gifs ... Just try loading any anim-gif and you will see, that Rebol puts them into block of separate images for you ;-) Here's very ugly example, some rebol guru could put it into new style. Anim style is not all that usefull, as it tries to load each frame separately from file or so ... There still may be some issues, as alpha etc. ... gif-anim: load %corsa.gif view layout [ img: image (first gif-anim) with [ rate: 1 cnt: 1 feel: make feel [ engage: func [f a e][ if e/type == 'time [ cnt: cnt + 1 if cnt == length? gif-anim [cnt: 1] f/image: pick gif-anim cnt show f ] ] ] ] ] btw: putting effect: [merge] into above code crashes rebol - sending to feedback .... -pekr-

Re: Animated gifs...


That should be "Irfan View". Anton.

I apreciate this list very much, but a lot of you become gurus, and it's hard to follow all the threads ! -- Best regards, ronaldoff
