How to use a .gif file in authorware

Dear community,
My wish is to use an animated .gif file to run visible during the task which I have programmed.
I would be very grateful if somebody could explain how I could do this.
Thanks in advance!

Insert > Media > Animated GIF...
When publishing, be sure not only the correct Xtra is installed, but be sure the "AWIML32.DLL" file is in the root of the published folder (same location as the .exe) for the GIF to play correctly.
Also, I think I recall...to get a transparent background...it has to be...black? Not white...? Am I remembering that correctly....?

  • How to use a key file in the FTP Task using and SSL connection

    In the past I have used this code to set the FTP pass word in an FTP component task in SSIS.
    Does anyone know how to use a Key file in an SSL connection to download a file from an FTP site?  If not can you tell me where I can get the C# code examples to learn how to create a script task or if there is another way in SSIS to download large files
    from an SSL FTP site?  Thank you for any help offered.
    public void Main()
    ConnectionManager FTPConn;
    FTPConn = Dts.Connections["FTPServer"];
    FTPConn.Properties["ServerPassword"].SetValue(FTPConn, Dts.Variables["FTPPassword"].Value);
    Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
    Antonio

    You can use SFTP for this.
    This is a way of implementing SFTP in SSIS using standard tasks

  • How to use my as3 file in flex

    hi, I am new in flex and want to divert into flex. How to  use my as3 file into flex. Is there any sample tutor . so, that I could learn fast.

    Please clarify. Is this .as file a class you previously used as a complonentcomponent you now wish to use as the main application?
    If the .as file just has variables and functions you wish to access from your Flex app, use:
    include "subfolder1/subfolder2/etc/MyASFile.as";
    If you want to use classes from the file, do this:
    import subfolder1.subfolder2.etc.MyClassName;
    If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.

  • How to insert a gif file into a table?

    Hi,
    I need to insert a gif file into a table. Can anyone tell me where I can find the information on how to create this kind of table, how to insert a gif file into a table and how to select?
    Thanks,
    Helen

    Hi Helen,
    You could read about that in the documentation which is available online.
    For a starter: BLOB. And I bet there are many examples to be found on the web.
    Good luck. :)

  • How to edit existing gif file using photoshop (CS2)

    Hello Forum,
    I have some gif images that I have used for creating tabs on a
    web page. I downloaded these images from somewhere, and did not create them
    myself. I would like to change the color of these gif files.
    They are a nice image, with a gradient applied at the top, and I have a left side gif for the tab as well as an "over" image set for the tab(s) as well.
    I use the images in a css file to display the tabs on a web page.
    The gradient is across the top of the tab, which is a lighter color, almost going to white, and the rest of the tab is a light blue, with left and right top a slight rounded corner. I would like to preserve the gradient appearance, but change the light blue theme to an almost black (#333333) color.
    How can I do this in photoshop?
    Thanks,

    Hi All
    I would like to create an action in CS2 to resize an image to e.g 600 x ? pixels and then save for web at max 149kb .
    Any clues? I've tried a few different files of different file sizes?(possible cause here) and always end up with different results when using my actions or the image processor.
    Is this at all possibleto accomplish in a single step?
    Let me elaborate more. On a particular forum where post we are limited to 600 x? pixels and file size no greater than 150 kb. When creating this action in CS2 with different file sizes one lands up with files ranging from 70kb (not as good for viewing) to 149kb(perfect size)or 357kb?(way too big). I'd like to have as close to <150kb for ALL files in the "action"
    Is this possible without getting into scripting?
    Thanks

  • How to receive a gif file using a custom ABAP FM

    Hi Experts,
              Here is my requirement.
              I have to provide an interface which should receive a GIF file.
              I have created a FM but what data type should I define in the import parameter or the table parameter to receive the GIF file (which has been converted to binary format by the other application).
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
       Do not type it to any associated type.
    Create a tables parameter with some name.
    Actually the FM GUI_UPLOAD does the same thing(Just that it is not RFC enabled).
    YOu can check its code.

  • How to open animated .GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer

    Q: Since ImageReady is long gone from Photoshop, how can I open animated GIF files in Photoshop CS3 and newer?
    A: File -> import-> video to layers.
    In the dialogue box type "*.*" to show all file types.
    Select your GIF file and which frames to import.
    They will now be available in your animation palette.

    Zeno
    curt y, sorry for the late reply, I tried that but I doesn't work. I have to choose at least two files in the Load Layers window in order for the OK button to be available and then some action script uses the different files to make layers and merges them but not from the frames of the gif file. I can undo through the script to see what it did but it never accessed the frames of the gif file, just the first frame. Choosing "make frames from layers" in the animation palette only puts the original files into layers - that is only the first frame of the gif file.
    I guess I'm out of luck with the 64  bit version of Photoshop as Zeno suggested :-(
    What program would you people suggest for opening each frame from gif files?

  • How do I view .gif files?

    I used to be able to view .gif files just fine on my ipad 3, but now whenever I try to view one, it asks me which program I want to open the file with (Evernote, Dropbox, or GroupMe). Anyone know how to fix this? They used to just automatically load in safari. I'd like to get this functionality back. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Right but safari used to open them automatically. What could have changed that safari doesnt automatically open them anymore? this is actually annoying while i am surfing the web. for instance, i just tried to pay one of my bills at a site i always used to be able to access from my ipad. one of the elements of the website has a gif file, and so i am unable to pay bills there anymore because the gif doesnt Auto load like it used to in safari.
    is there a setting that could be causing this?

  • Is it possible and how to open animated gif files in Photoshop CS4

    I made a Google search and I found tips that Photoshop can open frames from animated gif files by using File->Import->Video Frames to Layers. But this menu is missing from Photoshop CS4 on the computer I'm using it. Searching this forum for "Import animated gif" didn't return any result. Any ideas?

  • How to get a gif file to loop in PE11 with MAC 10.6.8? 480x320x72 pix/in. saved layers for web, check animate,preview plays fine but saved file doesnt

    can't figure out why the gif file won't loop. Set up 5 photo frames 480x320pixels x 72pix/in in PE11, creating a layer for each. Each layer visible. Saved for web. Checked animate. The preview plays fine. But when I save the file and then click on the saved file to play, it re-opens the layers instead of playing the loop. The only SAVE option that shows up is "IMAGES ONLY"
    Using photoshop elements 11 on MAC 10.6.8. Either I'm setting this up wrong or is there a hidden setting I need to change?

    Thanks for the thought, Barbara B. Not sure if this counts, but emailed the file to myself [different email account, same computer] but it would not play as an email attachment. Any suggestions for a web upload where I can test your suggestion? Seems like there should be a different save option other than IMAGES ONLY but that is the only option I'm given.

  • How do I display .gif files in Mail?

    This has bugged me for a long time. When I get an email that has web graphics in it (usually .gif files) I can't see it in Mail at all. I just get a red box. I am using Mac OS 10.2.8.

    Hi Canterbury
    Welcome to Discussions
    In Mail 1.3 Preferences, click the viewing tab and check the box that says Display images in HTML messages.
    I don't know if you can do the same in Mail 1.0 for Jaguar, but have look.
    good luck
