Flashcards Deluxe Forum

Hi waltex,

Glad you got it working! Yeah, it's a little tricky to get it going, but it works once you have it figure out. Thanks for your patience.

Thank you Ernie for creating an app that allows us to play animated gifs automatically.

I finally worked out how to do it!

Best wishes and [b]thanks[/b] :D

Thank you Ernie for your great program.

I finally got it to work!!

I now managed to add the animated gifs, after following the instructions on your video which is named: [b]Flashcards Deluxe - 02 Creating flashcards outside of the app[/b]


I used Google Drive to do this, as I found that uploading the media files via your website didn't work for me.


I found that one is able to put both [b]text [/b]and a [b]gif [/b]on the same card, if one uses a couple of returns after the text:

[b]For example, put type in the text field in Excel:
[/b]

This is an Orange:

<img src="orange.gif">

[b]Don't put this, otherwise the gif may cut off the image:
[/b]

This is an Orange: <img src="orange.gif">

[b]I also agree with you about using the parameters for the width, such as:
[/b]
<img src="orange.gif" width=320>

You can import most graphic formats. But if you enter a .gif in the picture column as normal, it won't animate.
First, you'll need to use OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive to import from.
Next, you need to use HTML to put image into one of your Text columns. Example:

<img src="example.gif">

You might want to include a height or width parameter to limit the size to your screen. For example:
<img src="example.gif" width=400>

If you need more guidance with this, let me know.

I see that it can show jpeg, but an other image formats? Specially animated gifs?
