Animated gif keeps looping :-(

Post by eddydc »

Hi,

Despite that the check box 'export looping animated gif' is NOT set, the result gif keeps looping, which I don't want. How can I prevent the animated gif from looping?

I'm using 5.1.5 in Win 7 64bit

If you turn off the "Export Looping Animated GIF", the result GIF is absolutely non-looping. It still looks looping just because you use some player programs like ACDSee. Please use Windows built-in player or IE or FireFox instead.

I doesn't indeed loop in firefox, but it does in Powerpoint where I want to use the morphs in

Unfortunately, you are unable to use non-looping Animated GIF in PowerPoint because this is a bug/defect of PowerPoint for a long time! PowerPoint only accepts looping Animated GIF.
If you want to play a non-looping animation in PowerPoint, you should use AVI or Flash instead.
