Dear Jim,
thank you for the question.
You have the -index option to get a particular image from an animated gif.
So:
image create photo myphoto -file ani.gif -format "gif -index 1"
Will return the 2nd image in the gif file.
Remark that with Tk 9.0, you get the animation parameters in the
metadata property.
Thake care,
Harald

I need to split GOES EAST satellite imagery (the loop) animated gifs into individual frames that my JStrack users (regardless of platform) can run using a pure Tcl/Tk alternative to Img. I seem to remember hos to do
this, two decades and two cancers ago, but not anymore.
I do remember that it was fairly simple, but that's it. I don't even remember where to start. I DO remember that once I had the individual frames, I used a while loop with sleep to create the proper frame rate
for cycling through the gif frames.
Any assistance in help my cancer nuked brain remember how I split those
gifs without Img, please let me know.
Thanks,
