Fltk's built-in GIF handling does not support animated GIF's, only static GIF's. Somebody (maybe Albrecht? Can't recall now, it was a while ago...) did post patches to implement animated GIF's, but that was some time (years) ago, and there seemed to be no demand for that ability, so it never happened... Your best bet is probably to just make your own widget to unpack the frames from the GIF and then animate them - I don't have any code lying around for handling GIF's any more, so nothing to suggest there, but it is not that hard. For the animation, well, start with Greg's example here and see how you get on: http://seriss.com/people/erco/fltk/#Animate _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list fltk@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
