234 Creating Animations

Image

Within Stopframe animation, this option lets you create an animated GIF by

default, which we'll focus on here. For keyframe animation, you can export a

single keyframe as any type of image format.

The .GIF format is ideal for web as it's universally supported by web browsers,
and, as it's a multi-part format, it's capable of encoding not just one image but

multiple images in the same file. A .GIF animation player or web browser can

display these images in sequence, in accordance with certain settings (looping,

frame delay, etc.) included in the file. The resultit moves! As with single-frame

GIFs, if you opt to export your animation with the Transparency setting turned

on, any unfilled regions of the graphic will become transparent in the GIF. All

other regions will become opaque. For details on using transparency in GIFs, see

Using transparency effects on p. 157.

To export as an animated GIF:

1. Choose

Export from the Frames tab.

2. The Animated GIF format is pre-selected on the Format drop-down

menu by default; if not, select it. If you choose another format, only

the current frame will be exported. For full details on GIF export

options, consult Exporting objects and drawings on p. 243.

3. Set a size for the GIF animation and whether it is based on the whole

Page, Selected Area or Selected Objects. Leave the dpi setting at 96 for

standard screen resolution.

4. On the Animation tab, which only appears in Stopframe Animation

Mode, you can preview single frames or run the animation sequence,

and make some final playback adjustments to the animation

properties.

5. Click the Export button (or Close to simply record the settings if you

plan to preview in a browser first).

6. Provide a file name and folder location, and click Save. Don't worry if

you have extra white space around your image. Any unused border

area will be cropped automatically, just as you saw in the Preview

window.
