###### (This function is part of SDL_image, a separate library from SDL.) # IMG_LoadGIFAnimation_RW Load a GIF animation directly. ## Syntax ```c IMG_Animation * IMG_LoadGIFAnimation_RW(SDL_RWops *src); ``` ## Function Parameters | | | | ----------- | ----------------------------------------- | | **src** | an SDL_RWops that data will be read from. | ## Return Value Returns a new [IMG_Animation](IMG_Animation), or NULL on error. ## Remarks If you know you definitely have a GIF image, you can call this function, which will skip SDL_image's file format detection routines. Generally it's better to use the abstract interfaces; also, there is only an SDL_RWops interface available here. ## Version This function is available since SDL_image 2.6.0. ## Related Functions * [IMG_LoadAnimation](IMG_LoadAnimation) * [IMG_LoadAnimation_RW](IMG_LoadAnimation_RW) * [IMG_LoadAnimationTyped_RW](IMG_LoadAnimationTyped_RW) * [IMG_FreeAnimation](IMG_FreeAnimation) ---- [CategoryAPI](CategoryAPI)
