>>(still no interlaced GIFs)<< >It won't display them? Or it displays them in the wrong aspect ratio?< They display just like non-interlaced, all at once. Interlaced GIFs display every 4th (I think) scanline, then fill in the rest 3rd, 2nd, 1st. Some programs display them as increasing resolution, starting out blocky, then progressively sharpening up. It comes in handy with LARGE graphics files, especially on the WWW, you can see what the picture looks like without waiting for the whole thing to download. If you don't like it you can stop. AutoPilot does Interlaced GIFs, try downloading a weather map. / / / //ANDRE

>>They display just like non-interlaced, all at once.<< So what's the problem? I guess it would be nice to get the progressive display, but as long as you're seeing things in the end… Mr. Zombie

The "problem" is: No progressive display of interlaced GIFs in AMosaic. Yes, it would be nice. I suppose the datatype will support it sometime. / / / //ANDRE
