Captivate 6 - How do I get .gifs in my training to animate properly?

Hello,

I inserted a animated gif into my training as an image, but during playback, it doesn't animate.  Is there a way to utlize gifs and keep their animation properties?

thank you!

Hi,

Can you tell me if this happens to a certain animation or all of them.

Can you try to insert an animation by Insert--Animation and locate your GIF file.

Once, you add the animation check the gallery and try to preview them if they look fine.

Thanks,

Anjaneai

When I press the "animation button" in an object placeholder, and select a .gif file to import on my hard drive, Captivate crashes ....

Hey Anjaneai --

  It seems the problem was with the particular .gif I was using.  I inserted a different .gif and Captivate did not crash, and the gif was animated during playback.

Thank you!
