multiple animated gifs
in [Powerpoint]
|
From: scottjbrownlee on 5 May 2008 21:44 I have ppt 2002, and am trying to have multiple animated gifs on the same page (overlapped). Basically, I have each one "appearing" on a mouse click, and then doing it's animation without a loop, then another mouse click to activate the next gif animation on top of the first (I am doing this with 8 gif animations). The weird thing is that the animation doesn't always work. Sometimes as I mouse click the animated gif is already halfway through or other times it is already at it's last image. The animated gif very rarely starts and ends correctly.
From: John Wilson john AT technologytrish.co DOT on 6 May 2008 02:55 Animated gifs run even when they are not visible! There's no way to control them in PowerPoint that I know of. What you need can probably be done with animation within PowerPoint though using "Flash Once" for each frame. There are some amazing examples on Shawn's site http://pptheaven.mvps.org/zzangdol.html You can use the animation technique with the frames from an ani gif simple example http://www.pptalchemy.co.uk/flag.zip -- ------------------------------------------- Amazing PPT Hints, Tips and Tutorials http://www.PPTAlchemy.co.uk http://www.technologytrish.co.uk email john AT technologytrish.co.uk "scottjbrownlee" wrote: > I have ppt 2002, and am trying to have multiple animated gifs on the same > page (overlapped).
