DefaultFrameTime

ApngImage.DefaultFrameTime property

Easily adjust the default frame duration for creating new frames with this flexible property. Perfect for developers seeking to customize frame timing efficiently in their animations.

public uint DefaultFrameTime { get; set; }

Property Value

The default frame duration, in milliseconds.

Examples

The following example shows how to create APNG image from another raster single-page image.

[C#]

using Aspose.Imaging;
using Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions;
using Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Apng;

const int AnimationDuration = 1000; // 1 s
const int FrameDuration = 70; // 70 ms
using (RasterImage sourceImage = (RasterImage)Image.Load("not_animated.png"))
{
    ApngOptions createOptions = new ApngOptions
    {
        Source = new FileCreateSource("raster_animation.png", false),
        DefaultFrameTime = (uint)FrameDuration,
        ColorType = PngColorType.TruecolorWithAlpha,
    };

    using (ApngImage apngImage = (ApngImage)Image.Create(
        createOptions,
        sourceImage.Width,
        sourceImage.Height))
    {
        // It is possible to set image default frame time there: apngImage.DefaultFrameTime = (uint)FrameDuration;

        int numOfFrames = AnimationDuration / FrameDuration;
        int numOfFrames2 = numOfFrames / 2;

        // Cleaning because the image contains one frame by default
        apngImage.RemoveAllFrames();

        // add first frame
        apngImage.AddFrame(sourceImage);

        // add intermediate frames
        for (int frameIndex = 1; frameIndex < numOfFrames - 1; ++frameIndex)
        {
            apngImage.AddFrame(sourceImage);
            ApngFrame lastFrame = (ApngFrame)apngImage.Pages[apngImage.PageCount - 1];
            float gamma = frameIndex >= numOfFrames2 ? numOfFrames - frameIndex - 1 : frameIndex;
            lastFrame.AdjustGamma(gamma);
        }

        // add last frame
        apngImage.AddFrame(sourceImage);

        apngImage.Save();
    }
}
