Can I use an animated GIF with Keynote 6.0?

I'd like to loop the animation of an animated GIF in my keynote presentation.
Used to be possible with the Quicktime inspector...
Is this possible in Keynote 6.0 ?
Cheers, Juergen

Easy work-around is to rename your file with .mov extention (I used myanimatedimg.gif.mov), drag the file from finder and Keynote now thinks its a movie. You now have the movie controls on the right which all work perfectly for your annimated gif!

I Know what problem it is.
Someone tell me that my animated picture does'nt set the frame delay.
And I use this site's source code to change my frame delay.

Can I create an animated gif with ps touch?

I've dome this on a desktop but can't see if ps touch has the same functionality. Can anyone enlighten me?

No, sorry. (You can, of course, create the frames for it...but that would require separate projects. It sounds kind of cumbersome but as long as you put the projects in a folder you can simply export all at once.)

Using animated gifs with transparent background.

Hi guys,
Keynotes 6.2.
I have been onto apple support with this problem.
I add a transparent animated gif to my project.
It show as a movie correctly in the presentation but when exported as quicktime or HTML the movies fail.
We eventually found out that quicktime does not support animated gifs. ( support.apple.com/kb/ht3775 )
So I exported the animation onto a folder with all the frames separately and brought them into final cut pro.
I then followed these tutorials on how to export with transparent background. ( http://provideocoalition.com/mspencer/video/fcp-x-and-alpha-channels and http://www.larryjordan.biz/fcp-export-transparency ).
I now have a quicktime movie that if I bring back into Final Cut Pro it has a transparent background.
However when I bring into keynotes it still has a black background. (presumably keynotes does not recognise the Apple Prores 444).
Any ideas how I can achieve what I need. ?
I am using a program called crazytalk animator and can output with transparent background. Animated Gif or a series of image stills BMP, JPEG, TGA or PNG.
Cheers
SteveW

This has been an ongoing issue for me since I switched from Powerpoint to Keynote. Most of the animated gifs with transparent backgrounds that I used with Powerpoint are no longer transparent in Keynote. You may want to search for those earlier threads on this topic...
To summarize: I've had to open up my animated gifs in After Effects and use the Color Key effect to restore transparency, with mixed success.
Good luck!

Can someone help me with a very basic guide to animated gif with elements 11?

Hi
I bought Adobe elements 11 and have been trying to do a very basic animated gif with it.I came acroos some instructions about layering,etc but still cannot get it to work. All I want to do is add two of my school photos together so that one suddenly vanishes and the one appears.I am planning to put this on my blog.
The animation I want is the day time picture of teh school magically vanish and the night time picture appear.Can it be done with elements11(I wouldn't mind if someone can even do it for me so that I could deconstruct it later!).I have attached the two photos.Please remember ,my knowledge of phtoshop is abysmal and very very basic.My apologies for that.hence I might be need to be told like a 10-year old!
Please help as I need this fast! Karen.

It’s not possible to fade between gif images but you could sandwich two layers with a black fill layer between them as I have done in this example.
Then use the menu:
File >> Save For Web
Choose gif as the file type, select animate, and set your timing in seconds with continuous loop if required.
Then Save.
PS the images are different sizes so I had to re-size the daylight image to make it the same as the night image.

Animated Gif with large base image & small animated part.

Hello guys
I'm not really sure how to explain that, due to my limited English comprehansion. I will try with images.
I can easily create animated gif out of multiple layers, given each layer is identical, with small changes accuring over time.
But I yet to figure out an animated gif, that uses one large image for the base, and only small part of it is animated.
I always get the animated part working, without the large base applying across all the frames. All it does, is flashes once
the frame is reached and then moves on to being transparent, showing only the small animated part.
For example, this is a GIF made with Galaxy S4, of my friend playing with his phone, imported into PS CS6. On the Galaxy,
after I record the GIF, I can use my finder to touch, mask and freez parts I don't want to move, and leave only small, animated bit.
When I import it to PS, it shows one layer with full image, and bunch of frames with the animation part only.

http://i.imgur.com/7XOGGV6.jpg
Problem is, once the image is open with PS, I'm not able to export it to keep it working in the same manner. Given the Samsung's
gifs are 8 to 10mb, it's hard to edit it, to make it more size friendly.
The gif clearly works the way I describe, so there is a setting or method I don't know about.
If PS is not best tool for editing GIF, what other apps would you recommand I use for it?
Thank you for the taking the time to read
best regards
Monica

Transparent Animated Gif in Keynote 9

Hello,
I have been trying to insert some of my transparent animated gif in Keynote 9 with zero success. I have checked that the background of the file was actually transparent - it is - and I have attempted to use the Alpha tool - not working with gif images. Should I give up completely?
Previous posts on the subject have not provided any solution so I would immensly appreciate any further suggestion on this!
Thanks!

You just need transparency in your file. Not sure if it has to be pre-multiplied. In graphic converter you need to remove the backgrounds. Haven't used GC in years so can't say how you can be sure it's gone but in Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects you can choose to have a checkerboard background to tell you when you are seeing 'thru' the image and by how much (the overall opacity or mask of the whole image if that doesn't confuse the issue).
If you are using PS images they will almost certainly generated with a set of rectangles including a perimeter cropping box and white background and these need to go either before it's bitmapped in a vector base app or the relevant pixels erased after it has been bit mapped in GC. As previously mentioned, if you have a unique bkgd colour, colour selecting/keying are some ways to do this). Much faster for >10 images to generate the plots without the bkgd but this may not be possible, what software is source material coming from?
I regularly bring in vector based moving art-work into keynote with alpha from Adobe AE, Apple Quartz and rendered .mov files. Some codecs (H.264) don't support a separate alpha channel (RGBA) but PNG (slow to render) and animation and a bunch of others do. Pre-multiplying removes the A channel in the RGBA (by multiplying the R/G/B by the A values) thereby speeding and making compatible with some GPUs/render pipelines.

Animated gif with transparent background

When I import in Keynote an animated gif with transparent background. The background becomes white. I did the following tests:
If I extract a single image from the animated gif and import it in keynote the background is actually transparent but it becomes white when I import the whole gif.
I also checked with other applications (NeoOffice) and the animated gif does come out with a transparent background.
Do I do something wrong in Keynote ?

Using an animated gif/other to display series of images within another image?

I design custom baseball cards for a hobby, and am wondering if I can use an animated GIF inset within a large photo to display a rotation of images.
It is easiest if you look at the "card"/image . . . within the circle, where there is a picture of Ruth holding some bats, I would like to add a series of several images that would rotate through (obviosuly the "card" would be for viewingonline rather than printing).
Is it possible to do? I am thinking an "animated gif" would be the easiest, but if there is some other way (video, etc.). I am open to that.
I just would like to know if the goal can be done, and if so, how to do it.
TIA!!!

That can be done with a gif. You just set up your bg image, then have a series of layers for your insert. Create a frame animation by opening it in Window>Timeline. Have all your insert layers except one turned off. Create a new frame, the turn on the next layer. Keep repeating creating a new frame and turning on a new layer. When you're done, you can set the time each frame displays. Save it using save for web using the gif option.

Creating a animated gif with transitions..

Hello all,
I am creating a animated gif with a set number of pics. They will change every couple of seconds transitioning from dark to light very quickly until you see each pic, from picture to picture..
Kind of like something you would see in flicker....
I have not used flash in awhile, so was wondering how to go about this..
Is this a pretty easy thing to do in flash (not to time intensive)?
Is there a particular tool for this?
SInce there is no movement here is this something that I can also create in Dreamweaver?
I would like to place this on a web page I am working on, and I am thinking I could just place it where it needs to go in Fireworks before i bring it into dreamweaver...
Thanks in advance!

You can create an animated gif using Flash, but it will be much simpler in Photoshop or Fireworks. See this technote:

Playing animated GIFs with NetBeans

Well for our Computer Science class we have to make a game.
For our title screen we wanted an animated GIF to play.
I made the animated GIF with Gimp and I am using the NetBeans IDE (I am using the GUI Builder)
I have tried using the image as a JLabel but it didn't work.
I just need it to play the GIF.
Thanks.

Ok sorry I should have posted some code.
Also I got it to work. But I now have a new question.
How do you loop the animation?
Is it possible to layer a JButton on top of the GIF?
And also is it possible to make this part of the code relative?
Like can you make it where it looks through the entire file without a specific path.
AndroidGIF.setIcon(new ImageIcon("C:\\Users\\***********\\Desktop\\android2.gif"));Here is the rest of my code.
import javax.swing.*;
class GIFTest extends JFrame
    JLabel AndroidGIF = new JLabel();
    public GIFTest()
        setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        AndroidGIF.setIcon(new ImageIcon("C:\\Users\\********\\Desktop\\android2.gif"));
        GroupLayout layout = new GroupLayout(getContentPane());
        getContentPane().setLayout(layout);
        layout.setHorizontalGroup(
            layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
            .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
                .addGap(27, 27, 27)
                .addComponent(AndroidGIF)
                .addContainerGap(41, Short.MAX_VALUE))
        layout.setVerticalGroup(
            layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
            .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
                .addGap(32, 32, 32)
                .addComponent(AndroidGIF)
                .addContainerGap(46, Short.MAX_VALUE))
        pack();
         public static void main(String args[])
            new GIFTest().setVisible(true);
}Note that I bleeped out the name of the computer due to privacy.

Can you make an animated gif from edge animate?

Can you make an animated gif from edge animate?

not natively. edge exports html and javascript files, not video files, or frames.
however, you could use a third-party program that has a video screenshot function and make one that way.

Can I use this animation of svg??

Can I use this animation of svg??
Elastic SVG Elements | Codrops

I don't know enough about manually writing code to create those SVG effects. I just know Muse will allow placement of such code once it is created.
Adobe Edge Animate has a lot of creative capabilities. A lot of things can be done with SVG elements within that program. Edge Animate can output .OAM files of finished animations to place within Muse. Certain things in Muse, like Slideshow widgets, can be used to trigger and control playback of those .OAM files.

Is it possible to create an animated GIF with transparency in AME?

I have Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 with Windows 7. Is it possible to save a video (I saved it as uncompressed AVI from After Effects) as an animated GIF with transparency in it (eg. black=transparent)?
I also have VirtualDub 1.9.11 but don't see a transparency option in that.
It's for the web where I'd like the normal web background to show in the black (ie. should be transparent) parts of the GIF.

Thanks. But if I wanted to keep using it it costs about £600 to buy. Would Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 be able to do this too (also, seeing as there is an animated gif creation option in AME and used to be in AE, couldn't they just add a checkbox etc. for AME/and AE for doing transparent gifs in those if they don't support it? Since transparency is a standard feature of .GIF is seems strange to allow GIF creation but not allow transparency)?
