Creating and editing animations
You use the Animation palette, in conjunction with the Layers palette and Rollovers
palette, to create animation frames from an original, multilayer image. You can assign a
delay time to each frame, use the Tween command to generate new frames, and specify
looping for the animation. The number of frames you can create is limited only by the
amount of memory available to ImageReady on your system.
About 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.
An image can have multiple animations that are associated with different rollover states.
For example, adding an animation to the Normal rollover state causes the animation to
play when the Web page is first loaded by a Web browser. Adding an animation to another
rollover state causes the animation to play only when the Web user performs the specified
action (such as placing the mouse over the rollover or clicking on the rollover).
Using the Animation palette
The Animation palette lets you create, view, and set options for the frames in an
animation. You can change the thumbnail view of frames in the Animation palette—using
smaller thumbnails reduces the space required by the palette and displays more frames in
a given palette width.
Displaying the Animation palette Choose Window > Animation. A check mark indicates
that the palette is showing.
Using the Animation palette menu Click the triangle
palette to access commands for working with animations.
Changing the size of animation thumbnails Choose Palette Options from the
Animation palette menu, select a thumbnail size, and click OK.
Adding frames
Adding frames is the first step in creating an animation. If you have an image open in
ImageReady, the Animation palette displays the image as the first frame in a new
animation. Each frame you add starts as a duplicate of the preceding frame. You then
make changes to the frame using the Layers palette.
Note: Always create and edit frames in Original view. While you can view frames in an
optimized view, the editing options are very limited.
