I was wondering if there are some general guidelines on how to use
animated gifs in Rev on the XP platform?
Turning the animation on and off would be my first question. I
understand that I can set the repeat and direction properties in the
property inspector and that actually shows the animation but how do
you do it at the script level?
Check out these properties: repeatCount, currentFrame, frameCount,
and palindromeFrames.
To start the loop, set the repeatCount of the image to the number of
repeats you want, or to -1 (to keep repeating indefinitely):
set the repeatCount of image "My Animation" to 1 -- does 1 repeat
set the repeatCount of image "My Animation" to -1 -- infinite loop
To stop the loop, set the repeatCount of the image to zero. The image
will keep displaying the frame it was on when you stopped it, so if
you want to display the first frame, set the currentFrame to 1. To
display the last frame, set the currentFrame to the image's
frameCount:
set the repeatCount of image "My Animation" to 0 -- stops repeating
set the currentFrame of image "My Animation" to 1 -- displays first frame
set the currentFrame of image "My Animation" \
to (the frameCount of image "My Animation") -- displays last frame
