Inserting text

[Graham Hampton]

Hi All,

Just purchased the Animated Gif Pro 4 and have a question please.

I have an animated world globe that rotates left to right. I now wish to insert text that appears to rotate right to left. I have gone in and inserted one letter at a time per frame until my word is complete then move it across the globe (frame by frame) and delete the letters as it drops of the globe on the left hand side, however it is difficult to maintain an even alignment i.e. one frame my letters/word are up a few pixels the next they are down a few pixels etc.

When creating the letters per frame I start off by centering them then click and grab them to move them to the right and so on and this is where I am having the problem. Is there a way whereby you can use arrows to move text around and not the mouse?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated by this down under Aussie.

Thanks Mates!

I haven't used AGP for a while (I'll download the trial and have a look) but it appears there is a custom positioning dialog for text.

Would this be useful?

Maybe the task is too complex for the built-in image editor and you should prepare the frames in some more sophisticated software and then put them together with Easy GIF Animator.
