When I insert a gif image in writer, it's displayed correctly. But when I rotate the image it get a read error.
Hmm, When I insert a .gif image into a blank Writer document and try to rotate it, image looks like it's been squeezed from both sides, and it plays distorted. Could you attach a sample document with the .gif you've mentioned? OS X 10.7.5, latest master.
PS, image does not rotate BTW. Just gets squeezed from sides.

I still cannot rotate .gifs.
(In reply to comment #5) > I still cannot rotate .gifs. Always say which version of LO you used to test. The latest available LO 4.1 daily build and latest RC may not include this fix. I tested daily build of LO 4.2 [1] and it works. [1] http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Win-x86@6/2013-06-23_23.38.35/master~2013-06-23_23.38.35_LibreOfficeDev_4.2.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86.msi
Created attachment 81339 [details] Sample file with a .gif file in it
I am using the latest daily master Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: c639c0931c3fed566df0a6fb3ec68d2c9884d2d4 - 24-Jun-2013 03:39, and it does not work. Sample file attached.
Animated GIFs aren't currently supported for rotation. It is currently possible to perform a "left" rotation because of a bug but otherwise rotate for animated GIFs will be disabled.
Rotation of gif images works now. Set status to FIXED dur to comment #3 Best regards. JBF
