Created attachment 181671 [details] Source for generating an animated gif 1. Open attached file. It contains a group of shapes. Select the group. 2. Menu Insert > Media > Animated Image. This opens the "Animation" window. 3. In the "Animation" window select "Bitmap object" option. 4. In the "Image" section click on the right icon, that is the icon with tooltip "Apply Objects Individually". 5. Without any other changes click on "Create" button. 6. Close "Animation" window. 7. The animation is inserted. It should be selected and plays. Move it with Shift+Right arrow a little bit to the right so that it does not overlap with the group. 8. It should be still selected. Menu Format -> Name. Enter a name. 9. Start presentation mode and make sure, that the animation plays. So this is indeed a functional animated gif. 10. No save the file with a new name and reopen it. Again start presentation mode. You should see an animation. Error: The image is missing.
