Frame settings area

The ‘Frame settings' area is used for changing individual frame settings, such as vertical and horizontal position of the image in the frame, frame transformation delay time, adding or removing background transparency as well as applying these individual frame settings to all the frames in the animated GIF;

To move the individual frame to the right of the animated GIF canvas, use the ‘Left' listbox to incrementally change its value or directly enter it in the box.

To move the individual frame to the bottom of the animated GIF canvas, use the ‘Top' listbox to incrementally change its value or directly enter it in the box.

To change the time of each individual frame display in the animation, use the ‘Delay time' listbox to incrementally change its value or directly enter it in the box. To use the same transformation delay time for all frames, click the ‘Apply to all' button.

To pick any color from the selected frame color palette and set it as transparent, click the white empty box below and in the palette, which opens, choose the color box you want to make transparent. The white box changes its color to the one selected. Make sure that the ‘Transparent' checkbox on the left is checked. To set the selected color transparent in all the frames, click the ‘Apply to all' button.

To restore the original background, check the ‘Restore previous background' checkbox.
