animate animate(1) animate(1) ANIMATE NAME animate - animate a sequence of images SYNOPSIS animate [ options ...] file [ [ options ...] file ...] DESCRIPTION Animate displays a sequence of images on any workstation display run- ning an X server. animate first determines the hardware capabilities of the workstation. If the number of unique colors in an image is less than or equal to the number the workstation can support, the image is displayed in an X window. Otherwise the number of colors in the image is first reduced to match the color resolution of the workstation before it is displayed. This means that a continuous-tone 24 bits-per-pixel image can display on a 8 bit pseudo-color device or monochrome device. In most instances the reduced color image closely resembles the original. Alternatively, a monochrome or pseudo-color image sequence can display on a continu- ous-tone 24 bits-per-pixel device. To help prevent color flashing on X server visuals that have colormaps, animate creates a single colormap from the image sequence. This can be rather time consuming. You can speed this operation up by reducing the colors in the image before you "animate" them. Use mogrify to color reduce the images to a single colormap. See mogrify(1) for details. Alternatively, you can use a Standard Colormap; or a static, direct, or true color visual. You can define a Standard Colormap with xstdcmap. See xstdcmap(1) for details. This method is recommended for colormapped X server because it eliminates the need to compute a global colormap. EXAMPLES To animate a set of images of a cockatoo, use: animate cockatoo.* To animate a cockatoo image sequence while using the Standard Colormap best, use: xstdcmap -best animate -map best cockatoo.* To animate an image of a cockatoo without a border centered on a back- drop, use: animate +borderwidth -backdrop cockatoo.* OPTIONS For a more detailed description of each option, see Options, above.

ImageMagick(1). Any option you specify on the command line remains in effect for the group of images following it, until the group is terminated by the appearance of any option or -noop. For example, to ani- mate three images, the first with 32 colors, the second with an unlimited number of colors, and the third with only 16 colors, use: animate -colors 32 cockatoo.1 -noop cockatoo.2 -colors 16 cockatoo.3 Animate options can appear on the command line or in your X resources file. See X(1). Options on the command line supersede values specified in your X resources file. Image filenames may appear in any order on the command line if the image format is MIFF (refer to miff(5) and the scene keyword is specified in the image. Otherwise the images will display in the order they appear on the command line. MOUSE BUTTONS Press any button to map or unmap the Command widget.

X RESOURCES Animate options can appear on the command line or in your X resource file. Options on the command line supersede values specified in your X resource file. See X(1) for more information on X resources. All animate options have a corresponding X resource. In addition, the animate program uses the following X resources: background (class Background) .in 20 Specifies the preferred color to use for the Image window background. The default is #ccc. borderColor (class BorderColor) .in 20 Specifies the preferred color to use for the Image window border. The default is #ccc. borderWidth (class BorderWidth) .in 20 Specifies the width in pixels of the Image window border. The default is 2. font (class Font or FontList) .in 20 Specifies the name of the preferred font to use in normal formatted text. The default is 14 point Helvetica. foreground (class Foreground) .in 20 Specifies the preferred color to use for text within the Image window. The default is black. geometry (class geometry) .in 20 Specifies the preferred size and position of the image window. It is not necessarily obeyed by all window man- agers. Offsets, if present, are handled in X(1) style. A negative x offset is measured from the right edge of the screen to the right edge of the icon, and a negative y offset is measured from the bottom edge of the screen to the bottom edge of the icon. iconGeometry (class IconGeometry) .in 20 Specifies the preferred size and position of the applica- tion when iconified. It is not necessarily obeyed by all window managers. Offsets, if present, are handled in the same manner as in class Geometry. iconic (class Iconic) .in 20 This resource indicates that you would prefer that the application's windows initially not be visible as if the windows had be immediately iconified by you. Window man- agers may choose not to honor the application's request. matteColor (class MatteColor) .in 20 Specify the color of windows. It is used for the back- grounds of windows, menus, and notices. A 3D effect is achieved by using highlight and shadow colors derived from this color. Default value: #ddd. name (class Name) .in 20 This resource specifies the name under which resources for the application should be found. This resource is useful in shell aliases to distinguish between invocations of an application, without resorting to creating links to alter the executable file name. The default is the application name. sharedMemory (class SharedMemory) .in 20 This resource specifies whether animate should attempt use shared memory for pixmaps. ImageMagick must be compiled with shared memory support, and the display must support the MIT-SHM extension. Otherwise, this resource is ignored. The default is True. text_font (class textFont) .in 20 Specifies the name of the preferred font to use in fixed (typewriter style) formatted text. The default is 14 point Courier. title (class Title) .in 20 This resource specifies the title to be used for the Image window. This information is sometimes used by a window manager to provide some sort of header identifying the window. The default is the image file name. ENVIRONMENT COLUMNS Output screen width. Used when formatting text for the screen. Many Unix systems keep this shell variable up to date, but it may need to be explicitly exported in order for ImageMagick to see it. DISPLAY X11 display ID (host, display number, and screen in the form hostname:display.screen). HOME Location of user's home directory. ImageMagick searches for con- figuration files in $HOME/.magick if the directory exists. See MAGICK_CODER_MODULE_PATH, MAGICK_CONFIGURE_PATH, and MAGICK_FIL- TER_MODULE_PATH if more flexibility is needed. MAGICK_CODER_MODULE_PATH Search path to use when searching for image format coder mod- ules. This path allows the user to arbitrarily extend the image formats supported by ImageMagick by adding loadable modules to an arbitrary location rather than copying them into the ImageMagick installation directory. The formatting of the search path is similar to operating system search paths (i.e. colon delimited for Unix, and semi-colon delimited for Microsoft Win- dows). This user specified search path is used before trying the default search path. MAGICK_CONFIGURE_PATH Search path to use when searching for configuration (.mgk) files. The formatting of the search path is similar to operat- ing system search paths (i.e. colon delimited for Unix, and semi-colon delimited for Microsoft Windows). This user specified search path is used before trying the default search path. MAGICK_DEBUG Debug options (see -debug for details) MAGICK_FILTER_MODULE_PATH Search path to use when searching for filter process modules (invoked via -process). This path allows the user to arbitrarily extend ImageMagick's image processing functionality by adding loadable modules to an arbitrary location rather than copying them into the ImageMagick installation directory. The formatting of the search path is similar to operating system search paths (i.e. colon delimited for Unix, and semi-colon delimited for Microsoft Windows). This user specified search path is used before trying the default search path. MAGICK_FONT_PATH Directory where ImageMagick should look for TrueType and Postscript Type1 font files if the font file is not found in the current directory. It is preferred to define the available fonts via type.mgk rather than use MAGICK_FONT_PATH. MAGICK_HOME Path to top of ImageMagick installation directory. Only observed by "uninstalled" builds of ImageMagick which do not have their location hard-coded or set by an installer. MAGICK_DISK_LIMIT Maximum amount of disk space allowed for use by the pixel cache. MAGICK_FILES_LIMIT Maximum number of open files. MAGICK_MAP_LIMIT Maximum size of a memory map. MAGICK_MEMORY_LIMIT Maximum amount of memory to allocate from the heap. MAGICK_TMPDIR Path to directory where ImageMagick should write temporary files. The default is to use the system default, or the location set by TMPDIR. TMPDIR For POSIX-compatible systems (Unix-compatible), the path to the directory where all applications should write temporary files. Overridden by MAGICK_TMPDIR if it is set. TMP or TEMP For Microsoft Windows, the path to the directory where applica- tions should write temporary files. Overridden by MAGICK_TMPDIR if it is set. CONFIGURATION FILES ImageMagick uses a number of XML format configuration files: colors.mgk colors configuration file delegates.mgk delegates configuration file log.mgk logging configuration file magic.mgk file header magic test configuration file modules.mgk loadable modules configuration file type.mgk master type (fonts) configuration file ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The MIT X Consortium for making network transparent graph- ics a reality.
