Hello, I want to create an animation in which an object appears layer by layer. the problem is that the object has total of 460 layers which pretty much makes it impossible to manually do it. Need help asap. Not sure if I explained correctly what I'm trying to do but if there any questions please ask.

If your layers are all set to be added to an animated GIF, then do the following:

  1. With the Timeline open (Window > Timeline), change the dropdown from Create Video Timeline to Create Frame Animation.
  2. In the Timeline panel menu (the hamburger menu in the upper right of the panel), select Make Frames from Layers.
  3. Go to File > Export > Save for Web (Legacy) and set the format to GIF & click Save...
