Frequently Asked Questions - Active GIF Creator

  1. How to embed created GIF-file into PowerPoint?
    You can put GIF in PowerPoint presentation like any other graphical file using menu item Insert/Picture/From file in MS PowerPoint program. PowerPoint has different versions. Help for PowerPoint 97 contains text - "only first frame from GIF is used". Old version does not animate GIF. PowerPoint 2002 supports animated GIF.

  2. When I add multiple graphics I'm experiencing problems.
    When you add image(s) from graphic file by menu item Image/Add, new images have attributes defined in dialog File/Preferences on tab New.
    GIF-file is a special case as it already contains frames with attributes. So you can leave original image attributes if you mark checkbox Keep original frame attributes of added GIF-files in dialog File/Preferences on tab Add. Some words about animation loops. It would be strange to use number of animation loops from added GIF-file as you can add several GIFs to your newly designed GIF. So you need to set animation loops on attribute toolbar tab Global.
    If you open some GIF by File/Open then Active GIF Creator uses all global settings and image attributes from this GIF-file.

  3. When I merge two BMPs together I am getting strange results. I set my transparent colors and I am not getting the first BMP data in the merge. Also when I select some image to set a transparent it changes its own colors.
    You can try to apply operation Image/Attributes/Delete Local Palette for source frames before merging and then merge these frames. If frames have the same global palette then the merged frame will use this palette too. If two frames inside GIF have local palettes with different sets of 256 colors then the palette of merged frame will be converted to some new 256-colored palette.
