GIF animation is not showed

[Lonifasiko]

Why a .GIF image's animation is not shown in my CF application? If i
open the .GIF image in IExplorer or just in a preview mode in Windows,
the .GIF's animation occurs. What about when talking about the image
being inside a CF application?

I've also tried AnimateCtrl from Smart Device Framework v1.4 but the
image's animation is not shown. It's another kind of animation, always
vertical or horizontal, but not the animation the image displays
normally.

I've also tried AnimationControl example for MSDN but when I change my
..GIF image, the example gets crazy.

Could anybody explain me this a little more deeply?

Thanks in advance.

GIF animation is not supported. The AnimateCtl doesn't use animated gifs but
instead uses a single image containing all the frames and then displays each
section of it to achieve animation.
