GIF Displays

You can use a GIF display to show a GIF image or a transparent GIF image and control the animation of that image. The transparent GIF allows the background color or texture to show through the areas that you define as transparent in the image.

You can complete all the settings of a GIF display in the GIF Display property sheet. This sheet contains the following two pages.
