Re: Wish: A better animation system inside GIMP

in GAP I would like to see
- repaired .APNG support (import and export)
- .MNG (import and export)
- numbered .BMP's as frames (used in a number of video frame conversion programs) (import and export)
- .AVI (import and export, but you can limit the kinds of video formats you want to support, since there are MANY)
- .flv (import and export) (I think it already does this)
- .swf (import and export)
 
and if someone really feels like doing it, .mpg and .vp8 files and some of the modern formats.  I believe mplayer can read a lot of these formats, and what mplayer does not read, ffmpeg does. ffmpeg even does AVI[MJPEG] which is what my camera puts out.

Note: disk size is measured in MB, GB, or TB, not in MiB, GiB, or TiB.  computer memory (RAM) is measured in MiB and GiB.

Hello,

Forgot to mention that it would also require to change most animation
scripts and GAP...

First of all, yes - I am aware of GAP and I used it several times
(although I'm still not completely familiar with it).

Still, abusing layer names must stop and this is my main request - and
in order to stop this we must introduce a very simple animation editor
(since we have many animation scripts and it should be possible to
edit their result). GAP is very good and complicated, and I'm
referring to something much simpler only to edit the frame
duration/disposal (instead of the ugly layer name hack) - nothing
more.

GAP is not very complicated, simply it is not well described.

If you are interested in multi-layer animations, the duration and mode of layers is obviously a layer property. Why not use the layer name for this? It is available and not very useful for anything else in this precise case.
