I am unable to create an animated gif because the options I get from the timeline's menu as seen in the screenshot are far from those listed in the tutorial. Why is this and how should i go about it ?

Correct answer Derek Cross

Hi Derek, the icon you mentioned is inactive


Try dragging an image into the Timeline then, hopefully, it should become active.

Can someone please help me? I'm experiencing the same issue - same menu problems... Photoshop CC 2015.5 (just updated)

and I have tried dragging an image to the timeline and nothing happens.  It's extremely frustrating... I too cannot click on the 3 dots...

Thank you...

No need to drag an image. - Just click that button that says "create frame animation" in the centre of the timeline.
