Animation

Animating Images

Images are animated in the GIF format.

One of the limitations of using GIFs is that they can only contain 256 colours. Neomesh Image Converter converts all GIFs using a standard palette. It uses error diffusing and quntization to make up the best image with the colors in this palette.

To create animations with Neomesh Image Converter, select the settings menu.

In the Image Joining box select Gif Animation€ in Join Type

Gif Frame Time is the amount of time between each image as it is loop. To set this enter in the value in hundredths of a second. 50 = half a second, 100 = 1 second, 1000 = 10 seconds and so on.

NOTE Gif animations cannot have a time less than a tenth of a second, if a value is entered less than this it will assume that the GIF is a tenth of a second.

Transparency is used to set the Gif animation.

To set Transparency click on the Transparency button and then select œDefine Custom Colors

Enter in the Red, Green, Blue values of the color that you want to make transparent.

NOTE: Neomesh Image Converter uses near color matching, it will try to get the closest color to the one that you have selected, since Gif colors only have 256 colors it may not find a match. You should use block colors for your transparency, eg 128, 128, 255 etc…

Gif Number Of Loops

When Loop Forever is not selected the Gif Number Of loops will allow you to enter the amount of times the animation is to loop. When the maximum number of loops is reached, the last frame is displayed.
