#HOW TO GIMP GAP UPDATE#

You can check the result on any animation point by navigating to it (using next and previous or other buttons) and clicking on the update preview button. Now change the width, height and opacity back to 100%. Notice how the status above the button changed to current key. Now add a new animation point by clicking on the add point button. For the first animation point use the following parameters: x:157, y:74, width:800, height:800, opacity:20. First, weРІР‚в„ўll zoom out the logo so it appears to fly away from the observer and combine that with opacity increase. I have used center, so use that if youРІР‚в„ўre going to stick with the parameters providedР’В here.Р”Р‡or the logo weРІР‚в„ўll animate two parameters. In the dialog, select the logo image as source and make sure you set the stepmode to none! Keep the mode as normal and choose some handle mode. Make sure you have the static image open but use the function on the white background image. Now itРІР‚в„ўs time to use the move path function. WeРІР‚в„ўll create a 20 frame animation, so the first thing will be to copy the first frame 19 times using the video/duplicate framesР’В function. GAP has series of functions to help you manage frames. You donРІР‚в„ўt have to copy the file yourself to add a frame. xcf images, so that you can work with layers the same way as you do in static images. The rest needs to be exactly the way shown. Create a separate directory for the file, it will fill with many frame files soon. To be able to work with GAP you need to save it in GIMPРІР‚в„ўs native format. This will create a new white image weРІР‚в„ўll use as a base for our animation. Now drag the background layer from the static image to the GIMP toolbar. Gimp will download the compressed image and open it forР’В you. In GIMP, choose Open Location from the toolbox File menu and paste the URL there. In case this doesnРІР‚в„ўt work for you, copy the link by selecting Copy Target or Copy Link Location from the image context menu accessible by right-clicking on the image. To load it into GIMP, just drag the image above to the GIMP toolbox. To make things easier, weРІР‚в„ўll start with a ready-to-go static image. Please go to the РІР‚Сљ Using GAPРІР‚Сњ tutorial to learn more about theР’В tool.

The key function of the GAP is the move path dialog.

ThatРІР‚в„ўs why weРІР‚в„ўll start with a little theory before we move over to the practicalР’В part. It is very advanced, but the user interface might be confusing for some at first.
