Animated Gif on VB gif89 ocx
Animated Gif on VB gif89 ocx
I need display an animated gif (i.e. http://www.infrarossi.it/image2.gif ) in a VB5 form.
I have already done it using Gif89.dll but it doesn't support stretch property.
Pratically, if I resize the picture, only form is resized, but image doesn't follow it.
How to resolve it?
Please, I can't use commercial OCX as anigif26.ocx or lavolpe.ocx anigif.ocx.
Only free soluctions.

The correct replay is a little project done in VB5 or 6, vhith a resizable window, and image2.gif resized with window and continue yo be animated.
As explained: no lavolpe or ocx, but complete free solution, working really.

Try this. Added resize control with drag handles. ucAniGIF is bound to resize control.
ucAniGIF can load local GIF using LoadAnimatedGIF_File or from URL using LoadAnimatedGIF_Remote.
Note that there are NO Ocx dependencies because the controls(ctl) are added directly to the project.

I confirm initial specifications.

Confirmed link and downloaded Zip OK here.
Try this link http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zwwyzltonzy
No reason it shouldn't work on Vb5 but I cannot test here since am using Vb6.

You may need to modify the vbp file in notepad to load in Vb5:

Downloaded Vb5CCE and found what was causing the problem in ucAniGif.
Fixed but there is flicker on Vb5 that was not present with Vb6.

I can compile but image is blank. Have to regsvr32 some files?
In Form_Load set ucAniGIF(0).LoadAnimatedGI F_File to location of Gif on your machine.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Command2.ToolTipText = "Target URL is http://www.animation-station.com/shared/coollinks.gif"
'ucAniGIF(0).LoadAnimatedGIF_Remote "http://www.infrarossi.it/image2.gif"
ucAniGIF(0).LoadAnimatedGIF_File "C:\Users\dseaman\Pictures\image2.gif"
Set UserControl11.BoundControl = ucAniGIF(0)
End Sub

Ok , it work (with flicker) in debug mode.
I hope that exe compiled, doesn't flickes, but I have many compilation errors if I try to generate .exe file.

Vb5CCE doesn't allow me to compile Exe so I can't track down the errors.
I could compile this to Vb6 OCX but you said No Ocx.

Excuse me, but I'm really novice about.
I can use a ocx, but have to be really free of license pending.
If you compile for me ocx, it is? In this case I can test ocx in vb5?
If yes, please make it without extra buttons. At end, I like use it in same mode as picture control, with only these properties:
- Image_filename
- width
- heigth
- top
- left
- stretch (yes/not)
- stop/start
- visible (yes/not)
so, if you compile to ocx the vb6 version (vhithout flicker) I can use it on vb5? If yes I can (every license free) use it.

ucAniGIF compiled as Vb6 OCX (requires only msvbvm60.dll which all machines Xp and later have pre-installed).
No flicker. No license required.
Register with Regsvr32.exe or just add controls to project as ucAniGIF(0) and ucAniGIF(1).

Sorry,
If i run your compiled exe I haven't flicker.
If I run project from VB5 or compile exe file in vb5 (http://www.geocities.com/pautasso/prjGIFViewer.zip
----> ucAniGIF(0).LoadAnimatedGI F_File "D:\image2.gif") flicker is present.
In any case, if you havent' t any way, I pay 500 point for your good consulence.
