Is it possible to have an animated gif as a bitmap for a button on a form. The GIF appears as the button back ground but no animation.
TIA

No, GIF animation is not supported.
You could use a window timer event to change the image on the button.

How would you change the frames in the amimated gif on the timer envent, could not then be applied to what he wants and just change to 1 frame

OpenInsight does not support annimated GIF's
You would fake animation by changing images. The images would be in bmp, jpg or png format, one image per file.
image1.bmp
image2.bmp
image3.bmp
then on a window timer event do something like this
image = get_property(ctrl,'BITMAP')
image.pos = image[-5,1]
if image.pos = 3 then image.pos = 0
image.pos += 1
image[-5,1] = image.pos
void = set_property(ctrl,'BITMAP',image)
