Specifying delay for frames

You can specify a delay--the time that a frame is displayed--for single frames or for multiple frames in an animation. Delay time is displayed in seconds. Fractions of a second are displayed as decimal values. For example, one-quarter second is specified as .25. If you set a delay on the current frame, every frame you create after that will remember and apply that delay value.

To specify a delay time:

1. Select one or more frames.
2. In the Animation palette, click the Delay value below the selected frame to view the Delay pop-up menu.
3. Specify the delay:
• Choose a value from the pop-up menu. (The last value used appears at the bottom of the menu.)
• Choose Other, enter a value in the Set Frame Delay dialog box, and click OK.

If you selected multiple frames, specifying a delay value for one frame applies the value to all frames.

Note: Delay time may not be exactly accurate. Animations play differently on almost every browser or operating system. This feature is to set an approximate delay, and not meant to be exact. Browsers, however, do tend to preview a bit closer to actual delay time than ImageReady's previewing.
