I am making a Mathematica animation, and exporting it to create a GIF file. However, I cannot seem to control the animation rate (speed) and the animation direction, using the "AnimationRate" and "AnimationDirection" options under the Export command.
p1 = Table[ Plot[k*x^2, {x, -2, 2}, PlotRange -> {-8, 8}], {k, -2, 2, 0.1}];
speed1 = Export["speed1.GIF", p1, "AnimationRate" -> 1,
"AnimationRepetitions" -> Infinity, "AnimationDirection" -> ForwardBackward]
"speed1" is the output GIF file. However, regardless of what parameter you put for "AnimationRate", the GIF file always runs in a fixed speed. The same is true for the "AnimationDirection" option. Is there any way to resolve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance! Tim
