Animated Picture problem

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • Hi, guys!

    I'm having some weird problem with the animated picture object. It works fine during MMF runtime, but after saving it as a stand-alone app, it simply doesn't load any images.
    I think the MMF code can't be wrong since like I mentioned, it does work during the runtime. It only doesn't after exporting to EXE.

    Thanks in advance!

    P.S.
    I'm running Windows XP, so stuff like running as admin and so on rather won't help here...

  • It sounds like you could have problems with the path to your files. Make sure you are using something like:

    appPath$+YourImageFile.png and have your images in the same folder as your exe.

  • Did you set up your image and sound filters in the application properties? Automatic doesn't work as far as I know so uncheck that in the image filter settings.

    I see you.

    Automatic will probably only work if you select the files using the file selector when you create the action, not the expression editor. If you put in the path like Apppath$+"filename.wav" the Wave format isn't included, but if you select it directly it will be.

    I've tried both ways, this and calling the file directly, it didn't change anything but...

    It worked, thank you! There should at least be some info about it added in the help file for this extension :P

  • It's a general problem with MMF, not specific to this extension. It can happen with any extension that uses image or sound filters.
