How to resize an Animated Gif

[Alejandro Tejada]

Hi everyone on the list!

Recently, while testing version 04 of
"EPSimport", I found this unexpected
feature. A resized Animated gif.

To check this for yourselves, do the
following:
1) In the message box write:
Create image

This empty image will appear in the
center of the topstack.

2)Resize this empty image to the
size that you want the animated gif
to have and set the locklocation
of it to true.

3)Set the filename of the image to
the name of your animated gif.

Voila! You have an animated gif
resized.

Remember that you could move
this "locked" image to any place
that you want, for example,
put this code in the script
of the image:

on mouseup
set the cursor to none
repeat until the mouseclick()
-- set the loc of me to the mouseloc
grab me
end repeat
set the cursor to hand
end mouseup

Of course, you could use
the keyboard to move the image
or move it to the points of
a polygon graphic.

By the way, is this resize feature
mentioned in the documentation ?

Alejandro
