first is it possible to display an animated gif? second it would be nice to be able to save an animated gif based on some frames from the sketch.

Hi,

For loading a gif animation i suggest look at the exemple under the learning section/topics/animation/AnimatedSprite.

For saving somes frames, you can use the saveFrame() function and use a name like frame-####.jpg for exemple.

regards,
a.

Hi, I'm new to Processing and programming at all. I've been searching the answer to this question quite a lot because I suppossed Processing could help me to quickly export a series of correlative images to animated gif without even previewing the movie -like with i.e. Adobe Image Ready-.

I didn't come to a conclusion, so... sorry I just insist on kontrol's question.

Thanks in advance.

or just use saveframe everyframe to create a series of images
