Animated GIF--Loop Just Once?
I created an animated GIF in Adobe Fireworks. It's a gauge with a needle that moves from the 6 o'clock position to the 12 o'clock position, using 16 frames ('states' in Fireworks parlance). I set t...
Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released an update for Storyline 360. In Build 3.90.32850.0, we’ve included important fixes and new features. One of the bugs we’ve fixed is:
- GIFs didn't replay on revisited slides that were configured to reset to their initial states
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here!
Hi Bob. Welcome to E-Learning Heroes!
I'm not an Adobe expert, but I would think you would be able to edit the "looping" option for the gif image in the original software (Fireworks). Articulate wouldn't control looping of the image, to my knowledge.
I played around with this a little bit and came up with a workaround for you, hopefully it'll help.
If you'd like to see the example I created, you can see the published version here. I've also attached the file to this thread, if you'd like to see how I created this. Please keep in mind it's a very simple example, nothing fancy 
I took a screenshot of the image in the position that I considered "finished" and put it behind the animated gif at the end of the time specified for the image. So, you could use the same technique and put in an image of the needle at the 12 o'clock mark.
I know this probably isn't the only way to do this and may not even be the best method, but hopefully it will help until you're able to find a better work around.
Good luck with the project!
