Simon Brown Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Secondly, if you could possibly publish an APNG plugin that does the same thing, I would be eternally happy. I'll try to implement it using the PNG specification and will probably implement it in the same DLL as GIF (I know I wouldn't want one but not the other). Do you know of a small freeware program that can create APNGs for use in testing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 There's a Firefox plugin: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5519 Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 I know, i've just found it. Also, I may not be able to add a repeat setting, I was thinking of the API I tried before the sample code (which I had tried before, only I though it wasn't working because of the number of programs that couldn't open the result, which probably didn't support animated GIF!) that I couldn't get to work.

Simon Brown Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Update posted. I may add APNG support in future, but it's important to remember: code monkey very simple man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Lovely plugin. Just two issues:It doesn't prompt me to specify the delay value for the speed of the animation. and It doesn't ask me if the animation should repeat. 1.5Allows one to select the delay between frames. Allows selection of number of times to loop. Simon, you rock!

Simon Brown Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Update posted. Now, with the latest version and a small amount of copying, you can add support for the saving of APNGs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aethec Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I tried a 5-frame APNG, loop animation and 25 delay, ... "An unspecified error occured while saving the file" (Mine was in French "Une erreur non spécifiée s'est produite lors de l'enregistrement du fichier") In case it helps, name was "Test APNG.apng" I re-tried after with 20 delay and loop, and it worked. [EDIT] Oh and, after having renamed .apng to .png to upload it, I wanted to change it and I renamed my file from .png to .apng, then tryed to open with PDN.

Aethec Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Try again with a 25 delay. It works. But if I try to open an APNG (by double-clicking on it in my documents or in the recent file list), there's an unspecified error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 My plugin doesn't support loading APNGs, but I left the method in as the base class requires it. *prepares for pwnage* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethec Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 *pwnage* Could you say this in the first post please ? I'm sure I'm not the only user who wanted to open APNGs :idea: But, it's still a really nice plugin. Oh, and is there a way to show the GIF in the picture box on the right of the settings when you save ? (don't know what's its name in English...sorry) And a way to know the file size, too (but this isn't really important) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~L1ke 20 N1njas~ Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 This is absolutely marvelous! I would like to thank you, and Rick! I think that Rick should maybe possibly think about including this in V4 . Or maybe even 3.5!! **Wishful thinking** And could you possibly think about releasing the source code for people like me who learn from examples. If you do, thank you SOO much in advance!

Delboy Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 This is great and works well for me.

Simon Brown Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 I cant figure out how to change a regular GIF into an AGIF? Save as an "Animated GIF" and then change the extension back to .gif. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
