Question

Animated gifs in Fireworks do not maintain the state delay

Hi All,

 

I am working on creating an animated GIF file in Fireworks. However, after saving the file as gif and then viewing directly from the files, the state delay does not work and has (most likely) defaulted back to '7'.

 

The original file shows the state delay as normal in Fireworks which in this case is '200', so the issue appears only in the .gif.

 

I have tried redoing the files and saving multiple different versions where something has been done different to others but nothing seems to help. Is there some process that I should do before saving the file as .gif?

I'm running Fireworks (Windows version) I cannot replicate the issue you're having .... Try changing the state delay to a much higher value to see if it is reflected in the exported GIF ...

Unfortunately the issue remains regardless of the time added. In Fireworks the state delay works as expected. Only when saving the same file as animated .gif, the issue appears.
