![]() People making high quality GIFs with Gimp often have extensive toolkits of scripts and plugins like Gimp-GAP. The good thing about GIFs is that the concepts are the same as animation and movie making. You do use a common background as Rich says and it is 'combined' with your finished layers. In my experience deconstructing a GIF is as difficult as making one. I guess the simple answer is you want the layers to be different to each other in some way or you want to change them in some way. ![]() "Why does just duplicating all the layers NOT work?" I'm thrilled to have a method that works, thank you!! The color is a nice touch! Why does just duplicating all the layers NOT work? moved those additional layer, bit of colouring, added some text, delay upped to 200 ms Open your Indexed gif and it should be OK. A single layer will look 'speckled', there is a new set of layer names so.Go and export that as an animation, setting disposal to combine and delay to some value. (any editing, extra text etc, now is the time to do it) That gets you something like this screenshot. Now, add to the 3 layers by File -> Open as Layers that xcf you just saved. Rename the layers (I used 0, 1, 2 but anything a, b, c for example). The text moves, background remains static. You can download the cut GIF video fragment from the output field by clicking on the "Save as" button.(03-16-2018, 08:39 AM)rich2005 Wrote: Looks like you are half way there: Too enthusiastic perhaps.įor just the first three frames. After a cut is made, you can see the input and output GIF parameters in the "GIF Info" options area. This option lets you compare the original GIF and the cut GIF at the same time. The "Paused Cut Preview" option will stop the animation at one specific frame. This option will loop the cut animation in the output preview field. ![]() To make a perfect cut, you can use the "Live Cut Preview" option. To extract the last 3 seconds of a GIF that has a length of 8.5 seconds, you can enter values "5.5" as the start time and "8.5" as the end time. Similar to cutting a frame range, you can extract the first 2 seconds of a GIF if you enter "0s" as the starting clock time and "2s" as the ending clock time. For example, if you set the start time to 1 second and the end time to 3.5 seconds, then you'll get a new GIF with a length of 2.5 seconds in the output. If you select the second cutting mode that is called "Cut a Time Range", then you can extract a precise time part from a GIF. Similarly, if a GIF has 65 frames, you can drop frames from the beginning and extract only the end part of a GIF if you enter a range "50" to "65". ![]() To extract frames 5th to 16th from the middle of a GIF, you can enter numbers "5" and "16" as the start and end range values. For example, if you need to create a new GIF that contains only the first 10 frames, then you can select the "Cut a Frame Range" cutting mode and enter values "1" and "10" as frame range values. The first option lets you cut a GIF by a frame range and the second option lets you cut a GIF by a time interval (in seconds). You can cut out a piece from the beginning, from the middle, or from the end of a GIF. This is a browser-based program that extracts a range of frames or a specific time fragment from an animated GIF.
