George Peter Staplin Sep 24, 2007 - Animngext is a portable Tcl extension that uses animng and megaimage. It's available from megapkg
Here's an example demo:
set dir [file dirname [info script]] source [file join $dir demoarch.tcl] set fd [open [lindex $argv 0] r] fconfigure $fd -translation binary set obj [animng [read $fd]] close $fd set frames [$obj gettotalframes] set images [list] for {set i 0} {$i < $frames} {incr i} { set image [list] lappend image [$obj getframe x y delay] lappend image $delay lappend images $image } proc next-image {images mobj step} { lassign [lindex $images $step] data delay $mobj setdata $data .f objsetimage $mobj puts "$step $delay" incr step if {$step >= [llength $images]} { set step 0 } after $delay [list next-image $images $mobj $step] } megaimage.frame .f .f size 300 300 pack .f -expand 1 -fill both set mobj [megaimage-blank 1 1] next-image $images $mobj 0
Note: to destroy an animng instance use: rename $inst {} Currently there is no support for writing animng files from Tcl. It's hoped that in the future this will be done...
