PAULRFONTENOT Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I have been conversing with several members today about the "lack of" an animation creator/player/editor in the Affinity suite of applications, & I thought I would make a pitch for writing a gif creator/player/editor in Affinity Photo; here goes: Andy shared that he worked for 2 years without success, trying to develop gif creation/player/editor in Affinity Design; it would be easier to develop this feature for Affinity Photo. Just "throwing spitballs at the wall here"; if you approached animation from a pixel application approach like Affinity Photo, it might be easier to "reverse engineer" the code from the Gimp.app (a free and open source pixel application) @ www.Gimp.org than starting from scratch; if I read the tea leaves correctly, the developers at Gimp.org encourage "liberal use & sharing" with no licensing fees required. (I am sure that if you could use their code to write in a gif creator/player/editor and send them a nice donation, that they would be greatly appreciative). I hope that you will at least share this idea with the "dream team" and you guys might put this in the pipeline. wgphoto 1 Quote PAULRFONTENOT Late 2013 iMac/32gb ram/2tb ssd 2018 MacBook Pro/32gb ram/1 tb ssd Affinity Designer/Designer Beta Affinity Photo/Photo Beta Affinity Publisher Beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
