Thanks, I think… "ADPro's dealings with animation require a careful rethinking of the hows and whys that make up the program. We have begin this thought and hope to provide a comprehensive solution when done." You people sure talk funny out there in Wisconsin. I think I've been diplomatically told "not at this time" in so many hundred words. I can guess what the problems might be, but I was hoping maybe to even work one frame at a time. I'm sure something could be done with compositing if I could only get it to stop at a specified frame. I'll word this in the form of a suggestion: When the GIF loader encounters a animated GIF, it should ask what frame to load (more importantly, through an AREXX script) and then do a composite with 100% replacement of the affected regions until the frame number is reached. In this way, we could convert the animation to an individual frame or frames for later conversion and assembly in a "real" animation format. Lee Bosch – via Whap!
