GIF Modules 4.0 For ImageFX 4.x
Copyright © 1999 Nova Design, Inc.
All Rights Reserved
This archive and its contents are freely distributable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This archive contains a GIF loader and saver for ImageFX. Because of newly
enforced patents on the GIF compression algorithm, Nova Design and many other
companies are no longer able to include GIF support in their packages. However,
since the patent does not extend to public domain software, we are releasing
the GIF modules in this freely distributable form.
This beta version supports loading and saving GIF animations, and requires
ImageFX 3.0 or higher. With ImageFX 4.0 or higher, layer animations are
fully supported. Arexx arguments are as follows:
GIF Saver:
FORMAT
Lace/S,NoLace/S,Transparent/K/N,NoTransparent/S,
Delay/N,NSLoop/S,NoOptimize/S,OptimizeChanges/S,
Append/S,Overwrite/S
INPUTS
Lace
Specifies that the file should be interlaced.
NoLace
Specifies that the file should be non-interlaced.
Transparent
Specifies a color register that should be designated as transparent.
Note that this creates a GIF89a version file, which may not be
compatible with all software.
NoTransparent
Specifies that no transparency register is used.
Delay
Amount of time to delay between frames of a GIF anim.
NSLoop
Add Netscape-specific frame looping information. (This looping
block is actually recognized by most all browsers now, it's just
that Netscape is the first one that used it.)
NoOptimize,OptimizeChanges
Disable or enable "optimized" GIF animation creation. Optimized
animations only store the areas that change from frame to frame.
Append, Overwrite
Append to or overwrite an existing GIF anim. If one of these is
not specified, a requester will ask the user which he wants to do.
EXAMPLE
SaveRenderedAs GIF DH0:MyPicture.gif
SaveRenderedAs GIF DH0:MyPicture.gif Lace Transparent 6
GIF Loader:
FORMAT
Frame/N
INPUTS
Frame
When loading a GIF anim, specifies the frame number to load,
from 1-N. If not specified, a requester opens asking which
frame to load.
