Animations

Creating an animation

An animation is a sequence of images, or frames, that is displayed over time. Each frame varies slightly from the
preceding frame, creating the illusion of movement when the frames are viewed in quick succession.
You use the Animation palette and the Layers palette to create animation frames. In ImageReady you can also use
the Web Content palette to add an animation to a rollover state. Each frame represents a configuration of layers in
the Layers palette.
