NAME

animate - animate a sequence of images

SYNOPSIS

animate [__ ''options'' __...? file ''options'' ...? file ...]

DESCRIPTION

Animate displays a sequence of images on any workstation display running an X server. animate first determines the hardware capabilities of the workstation. If the number of unique colors in an image is less than or equal to the number the workstation can support, the image is displayed in an X window. Otherwise the number of colors in the image is first reduced to match the color resolution of the workstation before it is displayed.

This means that a continuous-tone 24 bits-per-pixel image can display on a 8 bit pseudo-color device or monochrome device. In most instances the reduced color image closely resembles the original. Alternatively, a monochrome or pseudo-color image sequence can display on a continuous-tone 24 bits-per-pixel device.

To help prevent color flashing on X server visuals that have colormaps, animate creates a single colormap from the image sequence. This can be rather time consuming. You can speed this operation up by reducing the colors in the image before you mogrify to color reduce the images to a single colormap. See __mogrify(1)? for details. Alternatively, you can use a Standard Colormap; or a static, direct, or true color visual. You can define a Standard Colormap with xstdcmap. See xstdcmap(1)?__ for details. This method is recommended for colormapped X server because it eliminates the need to compute a global colormap.

EXAMPLES

To animate a set of images of a cockatoo, use:

animate cockatoo.*

To animate a cockatoo image sequence while using the Standard Colormap best, use:

xstdcmap -best animate -map best cockatoo.*

To animate an image of a cockatoo without a border centered on a backdrop, use:

animate +borderwidth -backdrop cockatoo.*
