Exporting animated GIF file of image layers

If an image consists of multiple layers, you can create an animated GIF file that plays through the layers.

 

To export a GIF file that contains an animation of layers

  1. Go to File > Export Layer Animation.
  2. In the dialog box, change the settings as needed:
    • Delay Between Frames: Enter a delay time in milliseconds that will be used between displaying consecutive layers.
    • Ping Pong Animation: With this option selected, after the last layer is displayed, animation will proceed backward through the layers (instead of starting from the first layer).
  3. Navigate to the folder where you want to save the file, enter a File Name, and then select Save.
