Specifying the display time of a frame or animation

You can specify how long a frame, a group of frames, or an animation is displayed when played.

To specify the display time:

  1. If you want to specify the display time for a single image frame, select the frame that you want to specify. SelectEdit > Frame Properties.

  2. In the Delay time field, enter the length of time that you would like your image to appear in milliseconds.

  3. Close the dialog.

  4. If you want to specify the display time of an entire animation, select Edit > Change Total Animation Time and enter the desired display time in the Seconds field. You can also adjust the display time relative to the original time by entering a value in the Times longer field. For example, if your original display time is 2 seconds, and you enter 2 in the Times longer field, your animation would now become 4 seconds long.

Hint: If you want to specify the delay time for several frames, select the frames and then select Edit > Change Properties of Selected Frames and specify the delay time.
