walbus i worry that you're undoing all your hard work on bucketfill by over-advertising it and in so many threads; that's your 7th post about it in this thread alone - a thread which is supposed to be about Purebasic 5.6 beta 1, ie
Fred's hard work! i think you should reconsider your approach </just my 2c>

(and before you ask yes i've had a bad day lol)

Hi to the team!
I would like to know, what kind of version 5.6 will be, as it isn't clear to me.
Will 5.6 be the new LTS version following the 5.4?
Or is 5.6 just a better 5.5 version, and a new LTS will follow after the 5.6 tree?
I'm actually only using the LTS tree for my programs, but the new features look interesting

Fred & Team.
Thank you for an unexpected bonus!
Nice to see addition of 'requested features'.
Could someone, please, enlighten me exactly what the ImageFrame() commands do?
Perhaps a demo would help.

This news come to me like music. (good music

)
Many, many thanks Mr. Fred! Starting year very strong!! PB Forever!!
Gif functions are a visual luxury in my creations.
GetUserDirectory() is simply fantastic when program multi-OS!
Remenber float number for correct fps in movies, please.. I know! im very heavy with that.. (and with other things too)
SetImageFrame() can be used with tif files with many frames too, or only with gif decoder?
Thanks a lot again for your constant updates.

@davido
GIF is primary a container with more different images inside
A ImageFrame is a picture in this container
Code: Select all
StartDrawing(ImageOutput(gif))
SetImageFrame(gif, i) ; i is here a image from inside the GIF container you grab
DrawImage(ImageID(gif), 0, 0) ; Now you found this selected image in the image gif
StopDrawing()
@minimy
It looks SetImageFrame is a feature only for GIF
TIF with multiple content are absolutely other shoes and very rare, i think...

If 5.60 were meant to be an LTS release, Fred would have called it "5.60 LTS beta 1" but that didn't happen so it won't be this one. LTS versions get released at intervals of not less than two years. 5.40 LTS came in the fall of 2015 so the next LTS will happen in the fall of 2017.

Crossing my fingers for HTTP POST and POST-vars for 5.61 to get past size limit of GET
